Winery Tour & Lunch at an internationally acclaimed golf course

We started off the day at Tamar Ridge Winery, which was recently bought by an Australian winery.  They had fabulous wines.  I think they would have been even better a little later in the day as we started the tour at 10am.  But you know what they say, you can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.   Just kidding, we didn't drink all day. :)  However, we had a packed day and had to start early in order to get it all in. 




Then we went on to Bay of Fires Winery, named after a Bay on the East Coast of Tasmania.  After the wineries, it was on to an internationally accaimed golf course called BarnBougle which is ranked number 29th in the world.  Not bad when you consider how many gold courses there are!  We had lunch and picked up some gifts for the golf lovers in our lives. 

Tomorrow should be an eventful day as well.  In the morning, we are touring the Australian Maritime Muesem and then it's on to the Queen Victoria Muesum and Art Gallery.  A walk to a Gorge follws lunch and then we're having a get together at Angil's host family's house. 

Friday brings our mid-tour break and we're all very much looking forward to relaxing at Green's Beach.  We hear it's pretty remote and the internet situation hasn't been confirmed yet, so we'll see when we get there.  Either way, relaxing with some good friends on a beautiful beach will be absolutely amazing.
