So... the lovely Mihai Melonari has a friend called Bernard who knows a man who owns a Vineyard and wineries. (i know sounds like i know a man who knows a guy but it is actually all legit) and we were invited to the winery for the weekend for some beautiful tours, wines and a 3 course gorgeous meal which we all would help to prepare. Will was a bit apprehensive as he doesnt actually like wine! but after a few good ones he actually quite likes is now. dont tell the army lads, ha ha.
It was fairly pricey but turned out to be worth it coz it was gorgeous. There were 7 of us all together which was a good size and the meal consisted of antipasti, slow cooked lamb with potatoes and vegies, then apple strudle (handmade!) with ice cream. It was gorgeous and we all helped, although to be fair i think the guys did most the work and the rest of us helped with the clearing. It was like a film set (pictures to be added)
Easter sunday saw another huge meal of breakfast leftovers plus bacon, eggs, hot cross buns, muchrooms and french toast!! Then we headed back to the city for our first house gathering of an easter sunday bbq. good times.
This was the most pictures i took since being here (but also since Mihai lent me his memory card so i could actually take pictures!) we ended up playing snakes and ladders and then card games and it was actually so much fun! we had a bbq and lots of drinks! will had a great time too which made me happy coz i was worried it wasnt enojying himself enough!!
On monday we went to the adelaide zoo! only place in Australia to have pandas! but apparently they were unavailable! thats ridiculous, how on earth are they unavailable. We then went to yet another new beach! Henley beach which was wicked except when there were big freakouts of shark attacks, which ended up being dolphins which was awsome!
That night we also had a big family style meal of fajitas and gorgeous ice cream! then there was even a good night out after even though we were all knackered! Went to the Grace Emily which is awsome! They always have live bands and they're so good and so varied, the crowd there is wicked too, a real good mix.
Wills last night wasn't his last night in australia but as i was heading to brissie the next day it was our last night together so after i had been out all day shooting (how professional does that sound? - or does it sound a bit psycho?!) so anyway for wills last night; me, will and joe went to the goody (our lovely local) for a couple of drinks and then to the most amazing thai place i think iv ever eaten in. and it wasn't too pricey either. Perfect end to a really good week.
