Napping and Noms in Napa

July 27th, 2015 by Karen 21 Comments




















1-napa-summer-2015

What do you do in Napa on a long, lazy weekend?

You take a nap.

Or two.

Or three. You know, #priorities.

My friends Jen and Cindy and I all agreed that the main thing we wanted to do on our girls’ weekend in Napa last weekend had to involve maximum relaxation, and yes, napping was on the agenda. 🙂 At the end of the weekend we tallied up our naps, and here are a few of the places where we collectively napped…

  • The pool (not inside but near it)
  • The covered lounge area adjacent to the pool (next to a huge bowl of French fries!)
  • In the “Serenity Room” at the Meritage Hotel Spa Terra
  • In the steam room inside the spa area
  • In the whirlpool lounge inside the spa area
  • In our hotel room
  • On the hotel patio

Haha! Who knew that three girls on vacation could sleep so much and in so many places?

Besides napping in Napa, we also had some yummy meals (my favorite was Sunday brunch at a cute bistro called Grace’s Table in downtown Napa), and we did some sightseeing along the waterfront…

It was a good time, but I’m glad to be back home in Novato. Napping in Napa is fun, but napping in Novato is pretty great, too. 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Looks like the perfect weekend! I’m always looking for something new to do in Napa. I will have to check out the spa!
    I also used to live in Novato. A long, long time ago when I was little.

    oh yums!!

    I love water. pools, lakes, streams, ponds, oceans…

    If I had a pool I would have one of those long floaty things and- not kidding- I WOULD sleep in the pool.

    Haha was all the napping a result of wine?? I’ve been wanting to get out there, but that’s definitely a planned trip (I hear it’s pricey out there)!

      LOL, Indya! Naaaaw, it wasn’t. We didn’t do any wine tasting this time. I think we were all just really tired, LOL!

    Wow, eating, being by water, being with friends, and napping are my favorite “hobboes!” Napa looks beautiful!! I’ve always wanted to go but live so far, and my hubby is more of a camper than a spa guy!

      Oh my gosh, props to you for being able to hang with camping. I’m like the worst camper EVER. If I camp it has to involve running water, four walls, a roof and a bed. LOL! Do you guys ever go completely off the grid? I could NOT hang!

      Hi Tatiana,

      The food was so good! I’m thinking about those fries right now and wishing I could have a big bucket of them, LOL!

      Happy Tuesday to you. I hope you’re having a nice day so far. 🙂

    It’s been way too long since I’ve had a massage or any kind of spa treatment. I was just complaining to my husband. There is only so much I can take, it’s been almost 6 years!

    I’m mostly grumpy because my husband spends every scrap of our disposable income on himself 🙁
