Wine Country

Day 1: Starting our trip off right

Scenic drive
Stopped by Santa Barbara for a seafood lunch at Brophy Bros overlooking the harbor
Made it just in time to Solvang to catch the Farmer's Market
Walked the quaint Danish streets near our hotel
We then had a steak dinner at the Hitching Post and tried our luck at the smoky Chumash Casino.
Ended the  night with strawberry fondue and red wine
Day 2: The Wine Tasting Experience
Sunny morning in Los Olivos
Short hike to Nojoqui Falls  
First wine tasting experience at the french provincial-esque vineyard of Sunstone Winery
After another tasting stop at Bridlewood, we stopped at Gainey Vineyard for a peaceful picnic on the hills
We had dinner at Brother's Restaurant and ended the night watching Sabrina, a Audrey Hepburn classic.

Day 3: Wrapping up our trip
Breakfast at Paula's Pancakes.  Walked around and visited a cute little bookstore.
Went to Fess Parker for our last wine tasting stop.
