Rice A Roni, the San Francisco treat!!

Welcome to San Francisco!! This weekend Greg, Tana and I took a trip up to the bay area to see IR (Kirsten). What a weekend! Friday we went into the city to play around. Kirsten, Greg and I ended up at The Royal Exchange for lunch and low and behold the CU marching band comes in and starts playing! What a random thing to happen!



The Klisser's in San Fran! So excited.

 
I had been talking up this bar we had seen on tv called the Tonga Room! I was determind to go. So we met up with good old Sean Hickey and proceeded to the bar. We walk in and OMG, its like a bad Vegas place. Tacky and smells like old dust! But damn were the Mai Tai's yummy!


The boys and their "oh so manly" drinks....Notice the water with G. No it's not an illusion, he was a good boy all weekend and hardly drank! H20 was his friend

Cheers!


Sean was on a mission to collect umbrellas



Told you, Tacky! Built in boat with an actual Monsoon storm that dumps water every 30 minutes.



Pina Colada made for 2. Neither Greg nor IR would partake in the fun times, so that left Sean and I



It was perfect fall weather! Scarfs and jackets!


Greg running up hill with IR on his back. He was really running!


This is the restaurant that Greg has RAVED about for a year. We were lucky enough to get to eat there.


Look who got into town!! Miss T! Out at "That Bar" a dueling piano bar






 Water again!!.....Oh Gregory!



3 Company!!

The next day we all woke up, not early might I add, and went on a 2 hour adventure to Amy's house!! From there we were off to Sonoma Wine Country! Wine tasting!!


First stop: Fritz Winery, its actually built into the side of a mountain!

Second stop: Ferrari-Carano. Beautiful winery with a not so pleasant women pouring the tastings. T out loudly called her "BLANCHE". They 20 people around us all started cracking up...Blanche didn't find it so funny :)



Third stop: Truitt-Hurst. Tana became a wine memeber!!  This had to have been our favorite winery! There was not a wine on the list that we didn't like. This winery is on a farm with a creek running through it. And the crazy thing was that the salmon were swimming up stream right in front of us. They even give you cool salmon glasses to wear :)
It helps you see the salmon better......shockingly it does!

 Here fishy fishy!!! I don't see them!!! Do you?

"There's no fish in here, this is stupid" Amy and I were not impressed. We didn't see anything....until Greg, Tana and IR came down and oh so easily pointed them out to us....They were everywhere!!


Thank you so much to IR and Amy for having us up this weekend and letting us invade your homes!! We love you and had the best time! Our stomachs still hurt from laughing so much!
