Sweet Escape

This Easter long weekend, we escaped the city & headed to the Hunter Valley wine region for a few days of great wine, delicious food & clean air. Every since I was young, I have loved mini-breaks, favouring them to long trips abroad when I would often find myself homesick and missing the familiarity of routine.

We spent sunny days dropping into boutique wineries to sample local delights, nibbling endless supplies of chocolate eggs & playing bocce on the lawn outside the cottage where we were staying. The change in routine offered a chance to regroup & recharge and today I feel rested and ready for an (allbeit short) week!
