Around the world in 300 days

View from our lodge

The Barossa Valley

Jacob's Creek

The world's biggest rocking horse!!!!

After all the driving David had done yesterday he thoroughly deserved a drink and so to the Barossa Valley we went. We stayed at a fantasttic hostel where we shared a lodge with another couple. It was a brilliant setting, overlooking vineyards and we stayed here for two nights. We visited 5 local wineries plus the biggie; Jacob's Creek and fell in love with the Barossa Valley. We completely relaxed here, drank a nice amount and even managed to learn something about wine and ports. So from now on, we want only the best darling! A bottle of vintage port might even be making its way home!

So, with bottles of wine in hand we headed to Gelnelg, a beach suburb of Adelaide. On our way we stopped by at a little place called Gumeracha, this is where the world's biggest rocking horse lives!!!!! We just couldn't top the big bobo and resigned ourselves from its dizzying heights to relax on Glenelg beach for the next few days!!
