Solvang Travel Workshop and Wine Tasting

I’ve got the best job in the world.  I get to create unique and exciting workshops for Samy’s customers.  I tend to produce events that I would want to attend so I’m really pleased to announce a photo excursion to Solvang that includes a wine tasting and three course meal.

Instructor Gregg Carr will start off this travel adventure at the lovely Petersen Village Inn  for a continental breakfast followed by a photo workshop in the courtyard.  This hands on event will continue into downtown Solvang where students will practice travel and street photography.  After a break for lunch, the class will move to the Lucas & Lewellen Vineyards for more photo opportunities as well as a wine tasting.  The day is concluded back at the hotel for a 3 course dinner and image critique at Cafe Provence.

This travel excursion is limited to 16 people so register now and don’t miss out.

Solvang is the Danish Capital of America.  Quaint Old World Color architectural styles blend with flower-lined streets to create a walkable village. Storks peek down from thatch, copper and tile roofs; while delightful shops offer imported European wares: porcelain, collectibles, wrought iron and every form of handicraft. The aroma of chocolate, bakeries, coffee and beer garden fare flavor the quaint streets. Solvang offers you a Shopping Showcase of unusual, quality imports and collectibles from 200+ merchants.

Food lovers really appreciate Solvang. They adore the Danish pastries, cookies and breads prepared in our bakeries, and they relish the frikadeller (meat balls), medisterpolse (sausages) and rodkaal (red cabbage) served in many restaurants. No visit is complete without tasting aebleskiver, the jam-draped, powdered sugar-dusted Danish pancake balls. But visitors also can choose from a wide variety of restaurants preparing traditional American and ethnic cuisine. - About Solvang
