We are back in 'gaston' and on the Top 10 site in Christchurch. The flight back was 40 mins which is good. Daddy has booked all our remaining venues which I don't think take in any more vineyards. We have quite a distance to travel between now and Sunday afternoon, when the 'gaston' has to be back. I am sure Mummy or Daddy will try and keep you posted on any developments. I am even more sure we will get lost AGAIN... even with sat nav - lol p.s. the p...

Happily there are no photo's of this event but it was touch and go for a while, I was beginning to envisage the call I'd have t...

All's good here . We are starting to make our way south with a relatively short journey today. We started at not just 1 cellar door but 2... Villa Maria and Cloudy Bay and yes you've guessed, Daddy tried more wines and Mummy was the designated driver. We had lunch at Cloudy Bay and I tried to play croquet, without much luck...
