Trip to Napa Valley






On Saturday, my friend invited me to join him and his friends from Stanford (School of the rich and you shall learn why soon) to Napa Valley for wine tasting. Apparently this was a class on wine appreciation....the things they teach you in Stanford.
I must say I don't really know how to appreciate the stuff... its cost about $100 a bottle! But I could tell what was too acidic and what was not. Shame on me but after 4 glasses of wine, I was a little tipsy. Not drunk -phew- but tipsy.

Ok, so why are STANFURDIANS rich? Because our tour guide (guy in red preppy sweater pourgin wine) was none other than the son of the rich family who owned the winery. And he goes to Stanford! $100 a bottle of wine. Think of the profits!!!

For those of you coming to Cal to visit, Napa Valley is famous for its wineries. ITs a beautiful rich and white area (yes being Asian there makes you stick out like a sore thumb) and its really pretty....Steak there is good too! Its just about an hour up north from berkeley....What a difference one hour can make! The difference between ghettodom and richdom..
