The Team Hard at Work!
-By Carrie
One of the toughest parts of this trip has been the constant exposure to good wines and food. I am thinking we will have the gout when we get home – our bodies responding to the lack of American junk food and diet coke. Here we are at the Penfolds Winery – and let me tell you, this experience was almost torture. We had to sample about ten different wines – one of which was considered very rare and quite expensive. My pallette went into culture shock with the Penfolds Bin 389 – I may never be able to drink cheap wine again.
In this next pciture, we almost caused an international incident when Gary decided to get his haircut in the parking lot of a rather popular winery. Katie – ever ready with the scissors – decided that Gary’s hair was at a level of “unkemptness” that was bringing the whole team down. Please note the Japanese tourists in the backgroud wondering what the hell the crazy Americans were up to.
