Day 230 -- food and wine excursions

Today we did a winery tour and found some amazing locally made wines -- reds, whites, sparklings, roses. It rained in the afternoon -- like downpour heavy rain. We ate lunch outside and had a wonderful supper -- both menus stressing seafood. Later, we walked in the vineyards after dark with the pathway lit by candle lanterns. That was magical.

I bought 2 or 3 things for the home cellar as did my cousins. Something to consume later to remind us of this wonderful day. Will do some exploring around tomorrow and the weather sounds like it might improve and be less cloudy and wet <smile>.

There are a few songs that fit with events of the day and I chose one from a  favourite singer/songwriter of mine that we haven't heard from for a while.  Enjoy!
