We got to breakfast a bit later than planned.

But it was all good.
The toddler really enjoyed the homestyle potatoes.

The usual oatmeal breakfast for wifey.

A made-to-order omelette for yours truly.

We were now ready to roam around downtown San Luis Obispo.

A certain shop is about to catch the toddler’s eye.

It’s Powell’s Sweet Shoppe. Again.

The toddler agreed to eat some candy only after lunch.
Speaking of lunch, we had worked up an appetite from all the walking around. So we headed to Firestone Grill, which a friendly person back at the hotel had highly recommended to us. “After 16 years, Firestone Grill finally has a website,” their Facebook page had announced earlier today.


Firestone salad – leaf lettuce, red onion, red bell pepper, tomato, feta cheese, and pine nuts.

Kid burger.

Tri-tip steak sandwich – sliced tri-tip and BBQ sauce on a french roll.

Basket of fries.

We understood why Firestone Grill is so popular. We’ll certainly be back.
After lunch, we went looking for a winery. And found one quite easily.





The tasting room.

Pinot gris.

Great views.

Pinot noir.

Wine notes.



I enjoyed the wine tasting at Edna Valley Vineyard. Wifey and the toddler enjoyed roaming around and checking out various shop items.

There was time for one more winery visit.

Just like how we happened upon Edna Valley Vineyard, we arrived at Tolosa Winery by simple good fortune.



Pinot noir.


Wine notes.


Cheers!

One of the tasting room staff offered to take our picture – very nice of her. Cheers!

I love looking at this stuff.

As do the toddler and wifey, apparently.

Quite an elegant tasting room.

But for the toddler, it was all about being right outside the tasting room.

Even though it was wet outside, the toddler enjoyed running around quite a bit. He also checked out the water feature.

Very intently.

We all enjoyed Tolosa Winery a whole bunch!
As we made our way back to the hotel, it was bittersweet to think that there was only one day left before going home.
Always Grateful,
