Then dad found his Holy Grail on the way back along the highway. That particular cellar had heaps of awesome wine like Cullen and Henschke and Taylors' St Andrews. It was so funny watching my usually stern dad go so excited and we spent like an hour and a half in there. The St Andrews is really the HG of HGs. The group of wine drinkers have been searching for it since 2004 and here we found quite a number of them at 65 bucks each! And Cullen was going at 100 bucks, which was cheaper than buying at the vineyard itself. Dad was a happy man that night.
Kailis. Ciao Italia. Dragon Palace. Tookbegi. Tiamo. Lambretta (dad's new favourite). Tony Romas. Swish n Chips. I've eaten so much over the last 5 days I could like fast for the next week or something and not get hungry!
Final haul - 14 bottles St Andrews, 2 Mad Fish Moscato, 6 Jacob's Creek Reserve at an awfully good deal. Mom has got like 12kg of pure, raw, unprocessed honey and 3kg of almond kernels. Wonder how they lugged everything back and the gold card does wonders. I get charged for luggage overweight ALL the time! Not fair :(
Now, I need to mugggggg. Haven't touched a SINGLE thing in the last 5 days. I had an awesome time with my parents though :)
