A four-hour drive from home and we found ourselves exploring Asheville, a city located northwest of North Carolina. After a quick stop at the city’s visitor center, we decided to visit a regional brewery. If you love beer, or just wanted to learn more about brewery, or in my case just wanted to see someone rejoice while feasting on beer samples, then this is the place. Highland Brewing Company is my hubby’s paradise. They offer free 45 mins to an hour tour and free tasting (!) – Monday-Saturday 4pm. For more information about the tour, visit their site at http://www.highlandbrewing.com/.

A walk around downtown Asheville exudes a hippie impression, reminding me of the days when life is all fun and everything is cool. Had I continued skim boarding and pursued my dreadlocks, I am sure to fit in. We also passed along a beautiful church and took a snap of it.

It was nearly sunset and we had a play to catch. Presented in an outdoor theatre in a park downtown Asheville, Shakesperean plays are featured all summer long. “Much Ado About Nothing” as you enjoy it under the stars was awesome. The production was never mediocre, the actors and actresses were excellent at their craft, the audience was great and simply the fact that it was held outdoor where fireflies were out and the actors and actresses interact with the audience (and my hubby was holding my hand)  was just perfect. When you visit Asheville, you sure would not want to miss this!
