McLaren Vale Wine Tour


Sunday 10:00am David - who by the end of the day was Davo, picked us up in the black Caprice for our tour. The sun was out and all things were pointing toward a big session ahead.

I could go on for hours about how good this day out was, where we went, what we drank, bought or ate, but in summary the idea of privately guided tours is a great way to see different regions, taste bucket loads of wines, learn lots about them if you are not schooled on the process (like us) & generally get plastered with a suited up driver taking you to the best places around!!!

We had about an hour in each winery, a beautiful Italian lunch, a local brewery visit to finish and by 5pm we were back in Glenelg very inebriated.....although motivated for more - namely brown liquor.

Normally I could see the sunrise, but now that I was 1 day off 40, I showed a much greater level of responsibility by being home at 8:30 (pm that is) after Dale (China eyes) was asked to leave the local and there was nobody to carry on with....:) A beaut day out and we couldn't have spent it in a better way. It gets a bit patchy after 3:00pm but a sequence of photos on Dale's phone tell a humorous chain of events after getting dropped off.

Thanks sis & Poichass for making the trip down, it meant a lot & we had a ball.
