The Best Trip Ever!!

A fun trip to San Francisco/Napa with my sisters!

On May 8th through May 11th, my sisters, Debbie, Angie and I went on the GREATEST trip ever to Napa Valley, California. My sister, Debbie won a 3-night stay at the Vino Bella resort in Napa Valley and free 50 minute Swedish Massages for all of us. We arrived in San Francisco at around noon and picked up our rental car. We immediately headed for Pier 39 and Fisherman's Warf. We had lunch at the Sea Lion Cafe where we ate the best Clam Chowder and Fish and Chips you can find! As we ate our lunch, we looked out a big window next to us and watched the sea lions sunning themselves on the docks. We walked all around the warf and Ghirardelli Square. Then we headed up to Napa. The resort was beautiful! Saturday we hung out at the pool listening to relaxing music they had playing. It was so nice to just lay there and read, sleep, cool off in the pool. AHHHH! We then went to a neat place called the Oxbow Market where we ate fancy cheeses, crackers and had our very first Kara's Cupcakes!!! YUMMY! Then we went to the outlets and shopped for quite awhile. That evening we went to a fun Mexican/Colombian restaurant for dinner. Sunday was Mother's Day and we each had a massage. I've never done that before and it was amazing! After, we went to the pool again and then out to dinner at a place called, Rutherford's Grill for some delicious ribs. Monday we got up and headed back to San Francisco where we walked around Chinatown and downtown San Francisco. We had lunch at the Cheesecake Factory at the top of the Macy's in downtown San Francisco. Then we headed back to the airport and flew home. It was absolutely the most fun trip ever!!! So Fun!!! I want to go back!!!
