Wine tasting in the Hunter Valley

Home of Yellow tail shiraz, and we just had to check it out. A day of wine tasting in any country is a fun day indeed! Oh, and it happened to be Father's Day in the land down under. We drove our little van to six different wineries , knowing that we could just crash out in the back, but Brian spit out most of the wines just to be safe.

This was great as the tastings were free, not like Napa now. And, they let you try everything. It was a great way to drink some wine on a budget, since Australia is very expensive. We also stopped a a cheese factory and gobbled down huge portions of cheese while pretending to be interested in the presentation. We still havent seen any live kangaroos yet. We seen a bunch of dead ones in the ditch and I'm getting bummed out. We are in Australia and I want to see something hopping around! Meow
