Our campsite in the Hunter Valley is great - we've got a powered site with an en-suite toilet and shower, it's funny but 6 months ago I never thought things like that would be a luxury...Last night was quite eventful - whilst Rich was cooking his steak (that he's looked forward to for days) something plasticy set on fire behind the grill causing some fairly toxic smoke and more than a bit of panic before we managed to find the fire extinguisher and put the inferno out...

Couple of pints at a bad Irish pub was needed after that so that was what we had. Today is 'winery' day - we are starting bizarrely enough at a cheese factory and then we're off to Tyrrells - one of the oldest vineyards in Aus. They do a full tour and free tasting and no doubt we will buy some wine to accompany tea. We're off on a long drive tomorrow again so have got to cram in as much as we can today.
