After a restful and relaxing few days parked up in Mildura over New Year’s, we’re back on the road heading west. Destination: Barossa Valley.

We made good time (gaining half an hour as we crossed the state border certainly helped), arriving at the BIG4 Barossa Valley in time for lunch. This place is impressive. We have a lovely spacious ensuite site with an enormous double shower! With the added ‘bonus’ of being right next to the field where the South Australian cricket team will be playing Victoria in a day or two. The team themselves are staying in the cabin opposite us! If it’s not Test Cricket it’s State County Cricket 🤦🏽‍♀️

Dan, Helen, Anthony and I made tracks to Penfolds for the afternoon where we tasted some of Barossa’s finest, including the famous Grange Hermitage - Australia's most admired red wine🍷😋

We also checked out the nearby Elderton Wines - a tough act to follow after the Grange. More to explore tomorrow…Læs mere
