The night before I had a little too much irish car bombs at a pub near the hotel and I was still hungover the following morning. I was in desperate need of GREASE so we stopped by this cute little restaurant for a burger. YUM!
greasy cheeseburger + fries = happy camper and no nauseated feeling
I love vintage so when I saw this truck parked outside the restaurant I had to take a picture. It reminded me of the 1995 film A Walk in the Clouds starring Keanu Reeves minus the war and grape smashing. However, it was appropriate for our trip to the vineyards.
from the back.
first stop - Domaine Carneros. The chateau at Domaine Carneros is considered one of the most beautiful wineries in North America. Visitors approach the winery via a grand staircase, passing chardonnay and pinot noir vineyards. They have excellent table service and a beautiful view on the terrace.
