Pages 2 Scrap Christmas Party 2010

What a totally fantastic day. For the staff Christmas party this year Tracey and Phil decided to surprise everyone with a trip to the Hunter Valley (NSW) in a stretch Hummer. What a way to travel. Got to love a good surprise. So we headed off from their place and headed for the Hunter Valley.

Our first stop was Petersons Champage House. The first place we went to at Petersons was the Chocolate Shop. The smell when you walk into the shop is very inviting. We then headed off to our private wine tasting on the deck overlooking the vineyard. Our tasting guide, Joe the Kiwi was great fun.

After Petersons we headed off to Tempus Two. We had a private cheese tasting at the Smelly Cheese shop. There were lots of gourmet foods to be tasted and purchased. And we did!! We then headed off to The Hunter Resort for lunch in our own private dining room. The food was fantastic and very tasty. After lunch we all felt like a nanna nap, instead we just chilled out and had a couple of drinks.

We then headed to Pokolbin Estate for some more yummy food tasting including olives, jams and olive oils. We also had some great entertainment from a bonds underwear model. What an experience!!

Our last stop was a little added extra. We headed back to Tempus Two for some yummy gelato. This was a perfect end to a perfect day. We then all piled back into the Hummer and headed home.

It was a great day and can't wait till we get to do it again.
