Day Five

Outlet shopping in Napa to satisfy Donal. I begrudgingly participated. ;-)
Drive south through Oakland on our way to Carmel via the Pacific Coast Highway.

Day Four

Wine, whine, wine.

Wineries: Castello di Amorosa; O'Brien's; and one I don't remember.
Lunch at Bottega where they don't know the difference between spagetti
and linguini noodles (but at least stand by their arguments). Slightly
tipsy by the end of the day so in bed and asleep by 8:30. I think the
jet lag finally caught up with me.

Day Three

Record rain in San Francisco. We couldn't get the car until 2:00 so
hung out in the hotel. I went Walgreens shopping just for something to
do. (I also went to The Banana and got a great dress.)

Finally got the car, Dad drove over the Golden Gate bridge - neat!
Dinner at The French Laundry in Napa. Very exciting, and while
possibly not worth every dollar we paid, it was a great meal and
experience.
