Well Jeff & I have been very busy blogging all of our wonderful portrait sessions lately, but we promised to share with you our travels as well. You know, something to get to know the real us, how we interact with each other and what we like to do. Well, here are two of our favorite things in this blog, travel & wine.

We decided to take last weekend off and just go spend some time with each other. We took a road trip up the 101 north to Solvang and the surrounding wine country. We spent the weekend wine tasting, talking to people, and taking pictures. If you are ever up in the Solvang area, check out The Wine Valley Inn and Cottages, that is where we stayed, our cottage was huge with a fire place included ( I miss having a fireplace at home). This is just one of the boutique hotels owned by Broughton Hospitality which are great places to stay!

Hope you enjoy the photos of our wine country adventure, there are even a few of us!

We started on the trail for Wine Friday afternoon…where do we start???
