Saturday: Napa Valley was amazing! A group of us — totalling ten — toured Beringer Winery, Mumm Napa, and V.Sattui for food and wine tasting. I bought a bottle of 1999 Leaning Oak Cabernet Sauvignon and a case of "Sweet Six" (six bottles of wine). I don't drink wine that much but something about being there and seeing all the wines. Beringer makes 45 different types of wine. They have a Private Reserve Cabernet 2001 that is rated 96 points...cost? $100 per bottle.

Sunday: Church service and end of "Authenticity" Series. Lunch at Myung Dong. If you're looking for Korean food, you can't go wrong with Myung Dong. Their tofu dishes are really good and that's what I ordered — Soon Tofu with beef. Make sure to get the regular as the spicy is "super spicy." After lunch rested a bit than had a bike ride with Frank on Page Mill going towards Foothill Expressway. Swam and dinner at Drew with Jen, Sharline, Hank, and Eugene. A very awesome (and active) weekend as that's what weekends are for.
