Vino, Vino and More Vino Trip II (Day 1)

While Steve worked, finished our taxes and did lots of laundry (that I "get" to fold), I was having a blast with my girlfriends.

For the second year, Allison, Jen and I flew out for 3-1/2 days of sun (drinking wine), fun (drinking wine) and good times (drinking wine) with our close friend Michelle who lives in Napa Valley.

It was truly an unbelievably wonderful trip.

After waking up in KC at 2:30a (PST), we arrived in San Francisco late Friday morning and went directly into the city. Our plan was to spend the day walking around San Francisco.


We walked around Fisherman's Wharf and went to lunch at Pier 23 so we could sit outside on the water and eat seafood. We didn't know it, but when the weather is super nice, Pier 23 is the place for the party people. And the weather was extremely nice.

And who are we to go against the grain?
So we ate, had drinks, found some straw hats, rolled up our sleeves, got sunburned and enjoyed a day on the water meeting all sorts of new friends (Steve will shake his head after he hears about all of these people we met; especially about the Vegas trip we're taking with a couple from Phoenix - yes, riiiight..., the Canadian "The Bachelor" - uh, huh and the body shot girl).





No, my chest is not red in the least.

After eight hours of "happy hour" we hit a tasty sushi restaurant called Tokyo Go Go that one of our new friends recommended. It was a cool place. Late Friday night headed up to Napa Valley to Michelle's house. After being up a short 23 hours, it goes without saying that bed was definitely our best friend!
