Napa - Wine, Food and Rolex
We just got back from our first trip to Napa Valley. I really enjoyed the change in scenery over South Florida. We stayed in Yountville in a small lodge and visited about 13 different winery's over three days. The food there was amazing and of course my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the wine! I would definitely recommend going. We took a bunch of pics that I thought I would share.
I knew it was going to be a good trip when I saw this at the airport: |

The pic with the Daytona is at Bouchon. I love that steak. I get that and the French Onion soup every time. Did you try the macaroons at the bakery next door?

You’re correct. I didn’t try the macaroons. I heard good things about the bakery just never made it there.
