Flying to wineries
Today I did one of the most decadent things I have ever done: a friend and I flew in a private, small plane, from San Carlos, CA, to San Luis Obispo, CA. We rented a car there and did a winery tour, complete with picnic, tastings and bottle buying, and returned in the afternoon. FUN!

We bought lunch at this funky deli on High Street in San Luis Obispo came recommended by Adam at the Enterprise Rent a Car counter. Indeed, the sandwiches were great. Thanks Adam!

Talley Vineyards has to be one of the most beautiful wineries I have been to. You can actually see them make the wine right there, it isn't just a store front. Also, the people are nice and they have a really nice Syrah at a good price: Bishop's Peak 2004 Edna Valley Syrah. Try it!

The men at Wolff have a really nice, relaxed way of tasting: you sit on their patio and they serve you with a short story about each wine. We liked their tasting style, but weren't so enthusiastic about the taste of their wine, sadly. A little too sour or acidy for our taste butts.

On our way back we flew over Palo Alto, CA, with Stanford University.
