Easter week-end we went to Newcastle. We met Alicia and Zac at the Brisbane Airport, but we had to take a bus and then a train to get there. The bus ride went just fine … no one was up at 8:00am on Good Friday. We made to the train station with just a few minutes to spare … since we are persons of a certain age… we made a quick pit stop. We then ran down the stairs and jumped aboard the train before it took off. We made it!
Emmanuel then asked the woman sitting next to us what train we were on. We found out we were going the wrong direction. We eventually made it on the right train.
My motto when traveling is, “you should spend at least 25% of your time lost … you’ll never know what you will find!”
In Hunter Valley we found wonderful wineries. Our favorite is a Shiraz called Convicts and Catholics. Zac and his Dad were fantastic tour guides and his sister Cass drove us. We were treated so well! We will never forget the beauty of Hunter Valley.
