Santa Barbara, CA
May 24-26, 2008

We are back in beautiful scenic area of Santa Barbara visiting old and new wineries and vineyards made famous by the movie "Sideways". This is our 2nd Road Trip visiting this area located just 33 miles north of Santa Barbara. This trip is filled with great wine tasting and a relaxing time at a nearby spa for a massage and a facial.

Click here to download the Sideways map (checked marks are the ones we have visited) of all the wineries, restaurants, and shops that were made famous in the movie.  We are almost done with our map...leaving room for just a few more to go. There's always the next trip.....
