My family and I went on a short trip up to Napa for my little brother’s road bike race called the Cherry Pie Criterium. Yes, the winners do get cherry pies, sadly not us though. This was my first trip to wine country and because I am not yet of drinking age we had to find some pretty awesome adventures other than wine tasting. First plan for adventure: visiting cool looking wineries and taking pictures of fields with flowers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We visited one winery with really interesting statues around it and it was really beautiful. Not to mention the weather while we were p there, around 80 the whole time. Nice!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Just looking around Napa there is such beautiful architecture everywhere. I wish I could have taken photos of all of it. The other amazing part about Napa are the old trees. I love the trees there with their scraggly limbs and reaching arms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next item on the adventure agenda was food of course! You can’t go to Napa and not eat good food, I think it\u00a0should be a crime not to get good food. Our food of choice was the CIA, not the federal scary secretive\u00a0thing but the Culinary Institute of America.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was really amazing. We got two samplers, the entr\u00e9e samplers and then the dessert samplers. With a side of the best brussel sprouts I have ever eaten!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The case of the missing food, I went to the bathroom and lo and behold it was gone. What can I say? Next was the desert round!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I loved the little cookie spoon in this panacotta, it was beyond adorable and fun to eat with.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That is all for part one of the Napa trip, tomorrow there will be more tales of our next exciting adventure. Heres a hint, it has to do with something medieval looking and many animals, stay tuned \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
