Perhaps this is a rather unorthodox Valentine image. Not the typical Cupid, roses, chocolates or kisses. But it is pretty cool, don’t you think? #cantbeetit 😉 Ahh, Valentine’s Day – a dreaded day by many, a cherished day by others. A day of celebration, handing out cards and gifts or just another day? What is it to you? 💖💘

Rolling hills, a vineyard, a different climate, a stunning building that reinforced the feeling that we were somewhere far, far away. The views were exquisite, the winery was amazing, and there were oh, so many photos to be taken! What’s not to love? We truly felt as if we were in Italy!
