Saturday

Saturday was an interesting day. We decided to go up to Napa because a)we had a wine shipment sitting in our winery since March and b)the winery was having a '07 Cabernet release party for members which was free. So, we thought, let's go up, get our wine, drink for free, have lunch and head home.

Our winery where we are members is Alpha Omega. We started going there a few years ago when they were just getting up & running. We loved it. They were personable and friendly. Paid attention to everyone and have amazing wine.



We had some Sav Blanc, 06 Cab, and 07 Cab. The 07 Cab was delish and goes for about $65/bottle.

Yeah! I'm happy. I'm in Napa drinking wine!

Then, we went inside to do a tasting and it took 10 minutes for us to be waited on. AO is now so popular, they have crowds. It's the complete opposite of what we want in a winery. We were NOT happy.


We finally got our tasting & went outside to enjoy the sun.

We got extra tastings because I told the woman we were not happy with the service. They are going to get a letter from me, expressing my disappointment. We are probably going to cancel the club, too. We don't get regular shipments anymore anyway, so it's not like we are losing out on anything big. Plus, we don't even like going there anymore. Yes, I am sticking my tongue out at AO.


Napa is beautiful but we might explore the Russian River area next time.



After the wine debacle, we went to Tra Vigne Pizzeria where we got awesome pizza. I love the pizza there!

We headed home to get Evie from camp. She was tired!

We took the Bay Bridge home. This bridge never gets as much love as the GGB but it's a pretty cool bridge.






Coming back into SF


Sitting in the back, yawning...


She got on the floor in the back seat to take a nap! haha

Needless to say, when we got home, we were so tired. Despite the poor service, we did have a nice day!
