My dad turns 80 in 4 months. My sister and I want to do something together. We’d prefer an experience gift but are open to other ideas. He’ll be on a Baltic cruise on his birthday so we aren’t sending him in a big trip.
He likes wine and biking. For his 75th we sent him on a biking wine tour. I’m not sure he has the energy for that anymore.

What about a weekend in an area w/some wineries? Nice dinners and a nice hotel room and all the wine he can taste might be a nice treat.

What about a bottle of wine with a custom made label with his name and birthday on it.

He is planning on being in wine country (our Okanagan Valley) in July. My dad buys good wine from Township 7 and one more place. He’s a serious wine aficionado. Maybe he could get a tasting. We keep getting Township 7 wine deliveries. I am not sure who is drinking it but that’s another story. |

For my 80th birthday, my family took me to Biltmore Inn in Ashville , NC and we did a private Segway ride. They had booked a fabulous suite for DH and me, and we had a celebratory dinner that evening. One of the best weekends of my life. We all loved the Segway experience.
My avatar is a photo from that wonderful weekend.
