Napa Fun Day

Anton finally took an entire day away from the office, so we thought it best that we keep him far from the office.  We started out with a trip to Sonoma for breakfast at one of our favourite places, the Fremont Diner.
Sweetcheeks
Say "waffles!"
Nothing like the right view to get you in the mood for a little wine-tasting.

The family.
Then we headed out to Napa Valley for a little wine tasting. We chose Castello di Amorosa because it was a Castle as well as a winery so Mila and June could play fantasy while Daddy and Mummy got drunk.
The Castle
Crossing the drawbridge.  Much to my delight, Mila was in more of a knight mood than a princess mood
Enter the Dragon
One, two, three.
"Daddy is so big...or these doors are teeny".
Mila trying to pick the locks.
"Daddy, you should get these, then you wouldn't have to buy bottles all the time!"
Mila's impression of a wagon wheel.
Mila's impression of a Rock Star.
Crushing wine, old school.
Soooo, what vintage are you?

Princess June taking a bath.
"Er-hum, a little privacy please?"
Strolling along the moat, looking for frogs that need kissing.
Mila's impression of the vineyard stakes.


Next on the Agenda were cheeseburgers and sweet potato fries at Gott's roadside diner.

The girls waiting for their order.
Mila wanted to know if Oscar was in the trash can. She was disappointed that he wasn't, but then she stated the obvious, "well he is at Sesame Street of course!"
Then it was homeward bound to drink some more wine, lounge by the pool and make poolside s'mores by the fire.


More wine
"Me man, me make fire!"
Mila refers to the s'mores as "lunch".  In her dreams.
Cuddles are always in order.
Secrets
Joy, joy, joy.
