Family Visit & Sonoma



Last Thursday, Erik's parents came to visit. His Dad was in town for a conference for work and his Mom flew out to join him. We started the weekend by going to Hillstone for dinner on Thursday night.

On Friday, Erik was off and they went to  the Conservatory of Flowers and out to lunch.

 Then, we had dinner at Beach Chalet.

 The next day, we headed out to Sonoma and Napa. First, we went to Gloria Ferrer for some sparkling wine. Gloria is great because you sit down and can sit outside and just enjoy your wine instead of standing around in a tasting room.
It was SO nice in Sonoma - warm and probably in the low 80's. We had a table outside which was great!




Gloria is known for their sparkling wines and the one I had was delish!







We walked around the  grounds a little bit to see the cave where they store wine. After our tasting, we stopped at a little deli for sandwiches and they had the best TURKEY JERKY. haha. It was amazing, I want to drive back up there just to buy more.

 Angelo's!

 After Sonoma, we headed out to Napa....
