Starting Out on the Vineyard Hike
A beautiful morning for hiking. This was our view as we stepped out of the van.
Checking His Melons
This was a hike through acres of farmland which included melons, grapes and almonds.
Farmer in the Field
This farmer was kind enough to stop and pose for a photo.
Doesn't That Look Yummy!
Our guide, Sebastiano, plucks a fresh melon from the vine to give us all a taste. I'm not a great fan of any melon, but I have to admit, this one was good.
Sweet and Fresh
Jim is enjoying a fresh melon right out of the field…doesn't get much better!
Onward We March
Our hike continues through the grapes as we hike towards our destination…lunch!
Fresh from the Earth
These grapes were just harvested and placed on the truck right before our eyes. Aren't they beautiful! Tons and tons of them ready for the table.
The Miles Click On as We Hike Through the Beautiful Country
The farms go on as far as the eye can see.
We Have Arrived!
The table is set and ready for us with fresh wine from the Villa's vineyards.
Empty Glass
Sherry's lovely smile after draining her glass.
Cheers!
Sitting in the shade with their wine glasses occupied, Steve and Karen are happy campers right now. Come on Steve…show those pearlies….lunch will be served soon. :-)
Content and Loving Life Right Now.
Deb is probably thinking it's better than a day at work. ;-)
On an Everlasting Honeymoon.
I don't think I ever saw Ted and Reggie without smiles on their faces.
Charming, Graceful, and a Veteran Traveler
Deb always seemed to be at home where she was.
