Road Trip!

Went to McLaren Vale again today with the Singapore Association people to taste wines and visit a lavender farm where they showed us how they distilled the essential oils from lavender.. It takes flowers from 35 bushes just to distill a small bottle of lavender oil! Drove a minibus there and the engine was so weak.. You could hear the engine groaning and straining when going up slopes.. I could only go 60 in a 100 zone.. Can't wait till I have my own car..
Look at the nice rolling hills with all the grape vines... and look how brown everything is because of the drought.. Tasted some excellent wines and bought some to add to my little wine collection.. haha...
So everyone do drop by Adelaide! There's lots to do and see!!
