Star Wars Day Weekend Getaway to Wine Country

Han Solo, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2 decide to escape the crazy fans during Star Wars day this year and take an unauthorized vacation to wine country.

Between a rigorous filming schedule of the new movie, getting chased by paparazzi, and posing for new action figures, they decide that sneaking away is the only way to bring peace and balance back into their lives.

The Adventure Begins…

First stop for Han and Chewy: Willi’s Seafood for a glass of wine and Champagne followed by some oysters.

C-3PO and R2-D2 set off to explore the town of Healdsburg. First stop: Akoia Day Spa.

C-3PO: Thank the maker! A spa! A spa! This aroma therapy will go nice with a wax and polish.

Little do they know that Darth Maul and a Stormtrooper have been sent to capture them and bring them back to face the crazed fans and paparazzi of Star Wars Day.

But they become easily distracted with all that wine country has to offer. They find themselves doing a little light reading at Copperfield’s Books then some window shopping around the town square.

Meanwhile the gang meets up for some ice cream at Noble Folk.
