Wine Down on a Friday

After breakfast we did a walk on the hill behind Nile Street (The Botanic Reserve) and then we set off to Waimea Estate for some wine tasting.They had had a fire last year so had shifted their wine tasting and restaurant to an interesting structure built under and around a large tree. We enjoyed the wine - including Fred's Red (Apparently Heather taught Fred many years ago)
It was a lovely day to have a relaxed lunch outside at Seifried's

Duncan had allsorts of Asian flavours on his platter 

And Claudia had Marmite sandwiches.

Simon and family went back to Nile street. We went on to Kahurangi winery but they were closed. We went ot Neudorf where the wines were the highlight of the day.

In the evening Duncan and I went with Millie to see Anything Goes - and it turned out the editing meant it was quite a bit different from the version that her school did. The dancing was great, but as they were young teenagers some of their voices were a bit husky  - overall a very creditable performance.
