Berkely Day 2

On Saturday, we decided to go to Livermore to go wine tasting. We discussed going to Napa Valley or Sonoma Valley but Mary said that those are more commercialized and she had always wanted to go to Livermore. Livermore reminded me a lot of going wine tasting in Walla Walla: all of the wine owners were in their tasting rooms. It was so much fun to go to the wineries and speak with the owners and the wine makers. Everyone was so nice and it is such a great way to learn about wine. For example, I never knew before that one could make port out of white wine. Mary brought a yummy picnic lunch and Jakob was kind enough to be our designated driver for the day!Here are some pictures from the wine tasting.





After wine tasting, we headed back to Mary's house and she made a great butter nut squash soup from scratch--yummy! Later that evening, we looked through my pictures from being abroad and Mary's pictures from her trip to Spain.
