Nothing would be more tiresome than eating and drinking if God had not made them a pleasure as well as a necessity ~ Voltaire

continuing from my last post...

11.22.08 (saturday)

i got up super early this morning (for me at least) at around 6:30-ish and had some healthy breakfast from in-room dining...  then, we went on an 11-mile round trip morning bike tour from 8am to 10am...  our tour guide was the ex-mayor of sonoma...  wow...  he took us ride through gundlach-bundschu vineyards, the oldest operating winery in california...  he also took us to vella cheese factory and showed us how cheeses are made...

we went to meritage martini oyster bar & grill for lunch...  i had a peach tini, some fresh oysters, bbq oysters (yummy), caesar salad, half crab and half lobster, creme brulee...  this is a good place for casual dining...  originally we were gonna go there for dinner but we wanted to go back to santé again since it was sooo good!!!

i took a power nap after we got back to the hotel room...  then, went to the spa for a quick bathing ritual and a massage!!!  ugh...  how i wish we can stay here forever...

dinner was again at santé...  we had the 7-course tasting menu...  it was delicious as usual...  i will upload the pix later...

11.23.08 (sunday)

i slept in a bit this morning...  10-ish, maybe?  so, we just had lunch in the room before heading back home...  on our drive back, we stopped by infineon raceway...  there was some sort of race going on...  i have actually never been to a race track before so it's a whole new experience for me...  really cool though by the way...  the highlight was a porsche rear ended a brand new maserati...  *ouch*
