Napa - Days 3 and 4

We finished up our trip in Napa, and I'm so glad we did.  It was my favorite part of the trip, relaxing atmosphere, amazing food, and even better wine! 

We stayed in a wonderful bed and breakfast near downtown.  They had the most amazing food, and really helped us find some great wineries to go to.  Here's a pic of the b&b.

Sunday morning we got up, had breakfast, and headed to a tour at Beringer.  It was really neat.  We got to see the caves, and see how they used to make wine.

so beautiful
After Beringer, we haded and had lunch at a great place called Sol Bar.  I had the best baby back rib sandwich....mmm....it was so good.  After that we headed back down towards town to visit a few more places.

After a few more stops, we headed back to our room to get ready for dinner.  During our time there we ate at Bouchon and Bottega for dinner - both were AMAZING!!  I swear we were still full the next day after we were home. 
The next day, we had another great breakfast, and then we left to come home.  We did make one more stop on our way....the Jelly Belly Factory!  We got to take a tour and see thousands of little jelly beans being made.  It was fun to act like kids for a little bit, then it was back home to our little one.
