Barossa Valley

Gday

Hows you all going??? Osk well it's a little bit cold here in Adelaide, but then we are in the middle of winter so actually it's not too bad!!!

After we finished blogging yesterday, we went on a tour of the Barossa Valley (most famous wine making region in Adelaide!!)...

First stop after an hour on the coach (and a little snooze!!) was a small town called Lyndoch where we stopped for morning tea!!!

Next stop off too the Wolf Blass winery for some wine testing (possibly not the best idea after best part of 2 nights without sleep!!!!)... 6 wines later (Lee thought they were all nice) we headed off for Lunch...

In the afternoon we went to a town called Hahn which is a German settlement (lots of real pubs where you can get proper measures of beers instead of poncey schooners!!!!)..... Tired as hell we got dropped off back at the Hilton at 6pm....

The hotel is lovely and the breakfast buffet mental (talk about every taste catered for!!!)....

Anyways that's about it, there are some pics below... Last day here tomorrow and then we're off to Perth!!!!

Lots of Love
Lucy and Lee xx
