Hunter Valley arrival

 Monday 26 April

An efficient trip from Sydney to Broke to meet up with David and Linda at Bistro Molines. This well known restaurant is situated atop a hill overlooking the vines and was reasonably full, even on a Monday. 

Duck and venison were on the menu and a couple of Hunter Valley reds were discussed and consumed before driving to our big house at Whispering Brook. 

The old house is reasonably well fitted out and comfortable. A dinner of cold cuts and hot pumpkin soup with numerous Hunter wines completed the day. After dinner, Alyssa hooked up two laptops to the big TV and we all played a game of Jeopardy.
