Winter in the Vines

It has been a beautiful day today, gorgeous sunshine but still a bit on the chilly side. Can't complain though, it is winter after all.

We have had our regular girlie lunch today at a winery and it was cosy and warm with the sun shining in.

This is a photo taken from the restaurant at the winery.
Sounds like a lovely day, what a fun sculpture. Love it!

Babs, if it was raining, this could be an English summer!

Great shot of your winter Babs but I have to agree with Hazel!

There is always a drastic difference between "our" winters Babs. I hope you enjoy the new season, while I enjoy summer here. :)

Lots of promise for Spring!

I like the way you have caught the bird sculpture, neat capture.

The first time I saw a vineyard was in NZ a few months ago, they were very impressive in all their full leaf & grape. This is a new view & you can only admire the precision of row, sounds a nice day but perhaps better at wine tasting time!!

Love the fun sculpture! Nice shot!

Great view and a cool looking statue. I'm glad you enjoyed your lunch outing.

Sunshine & wine; you are rubbing it in as the weather has been grey & wet.I like the foreground bird.

@beachdog @happysnaps @pusspup @seattlite @pippie @ladymagpie @inthecloud5 @susie1205 @karens54 @mittens Thanks it was a great day. What more could you ask for, a lovely lunch, gorgeous surroundings, good friends, sunshine and a glass of Verdelho

@novab Thanks Nova. I think I prefer our winters. Much warmer.
June 30th, 2016  
@annied Wonganella, it has only just opened up again after all the problems with Murray's. Lovely meal and wine tasting too. Fabulous Verdelho
June 30th, 2016  
@happypat Thanks Pat. Still had the wine tasting. That doesn't stop just because it is winter here. Bought a bottle of Verdelho too.

@paulmann Thanks Paul. The good thing about winter in Australia is that it isn;'t winter every day. Lovely clear skies at the moment which is what is making it colder than usual in our part of the world.
June 30th, 2016  
Sounds like a fun day! Cool sculpture!
June 30th, 2016  
Love girlie lunches...and this looks like a great place to have one!!!!
June 30th, 2016  
Makes. My four grape vines look sick, great shot.
June 30th, 2016  
Nothing quite like a girlie lunch. Sounds lovely.
June 30th, 2016  
@loweygrace @eyesmile @susiemc Thanks we have a fabulous time at our girlie lunches. We do see each other during the month, but with such busy lives we do try to get all of us together once a month.

@tonygig Four grape vines are better than none Tony. Do you tread your own grapes.
June 30th, 2016  
Nice sculpture, is it metal standing on wood? Interesting to see all the grape vines in rows like that too.
June 30th, 2016  
Sounds like my kind of day!
June 30th, 2016  
@stephanies Yes Stephanie it is a metal cockatoo standing on wood. The vines look very wintery. I will have to go back in spring when they are starting to grow again.
