For Kims birthday Oct 10 we drove to Napa Valley on Friday, had dinner at the CIA, after taking a course on praline mousse. For Sat we stopped by Chandon Domain, St Supery, and Sattui wineries. In the evening we went to San Jose Sharks Hockey game vs LA Kings.

For the following weekend, we drove down to San Diego to celebrate Tigers and Donnas birthday. We had standby tix to Ellen Degeneres show, so we stayed in Burbank for 2 days. We had dinner at Fogo de Chao in Beverly Hills, Brazilian dinner, all you can eat, at 50 per person. Next day we had dinner on UCLA campus before driving down to Mission Viejo to meet Kims friend, chi Minh Hiep. MH is from Vn woman who lived Belgium for 27 years, speaks perfect Vn and French. Her husband is Swedish, and their children speak only French. After visiting Nikken, to pickup Kims bed, we went down to San Diego to stayover at my uncles house. On Sat I had breakfast with my German lady friend before we went to Sea World with Nathan. He loved it! At the end of the day we stopped by La Jolla Beach and Torrey Pines Beach to watch the sun set.
