The next day was a rest day with a leisurely visit to Mission hill winery with its gardens and bell tower which rings every hour.There was lots of space for the kids to run around while the grand parents looked in the gift shop and sampled more wine.
Heather and Finlay enjoyed throwing coins into the wishing well, I'm just curious as to what the little rascals were wishing for!!!
Next it was a trip along the road to Quail's gate winery and a spot of lunch. However this place seemed to think it was a little up market and as we walked into the restaurant one of the waitresses came up to us and offered us a seat outside, as it was a cooler day with some wind, she kindly offered to put on the gas heaters. Oh I knew where she was coming from......
As we sat outside and waited eagerly for our food while the lovely breeze blew around us, the waitress came out again and said,"Seeing as it is so windy we were wondering if you would like a blanket".... Thank you so much I thought but a seat inside would be better...."Just the soup for me thanks...". Not much of a lunch for me but that was expensive a 9 bucks. James had the gourmet burger and Mum and Dad had some salmon dish and I then helped the kids eat the pasta!! Quail's gate too posh for kids!!!
