Napa here we come


Today we headed off to Napa sans kids with some of out favorite people. We didn't have a lot on the agenda but to relax and enjoy some great wine and food.
We started out the adventure getting massages. I'm pretty sure that was Chris's first and last. I kept hearing the person tell him to relax. 
Next, we were on a mission to find lunch. Yelp reviewers didn't let us down at our first stop Boon Fly Cafe. The donuts were TO DIE FOR followed by watermelon mimosas and a delicious lunch!
After a super yummy we lunch we were off to find some delicious red wine. And our first stop had a beautiful view and probably the most comical wine labels and decor. We happened to stumble upon the only Asian winery in Napa and it did not disappoint for a good laugh. The blue bottle was pretty good, but it is just hard to get past a guy who plasters his picture EVERYWHERE. I wish I would have snapped a picture of the bottles!!! Chris and I already decided that Gabe is getting a bottle of it every Christmas from us. After some wine we headed to the hotel to enjoy the hot tub and relax before we started our progressive dinner.
After even more wine and drinks at Bottega ( can you tell from the picture above we clearly were enjoying the wine?) we headed to Lucy and ultra modern hotel in Yountville. The food disappointed, but the grounds and the bathrooms were AMAZING!!! You almost have to go to Yountville just to experience the bathroom. It was very European.
After  a few  a lot of wine and drinks we ended our progressive dinner at  Bouchon. It was AMAZING! There is a reason why we could only get 9:15 reservations on a Sunday night. That place was hopping well after 11. Everything was delicious! And do you see the wine on our table? Yep, Gabe just had to bring a bottle of Mr. Hoang with us to dinner. I am guessing Bouchon doesn't see too many of those bottles.
