5 November - Swan Valley Food and Wine Trail and Whiteman Park

5 November 2016 – 194 477
Swan Valley Food and Wine Trail and Whiteman Park


This morning we got up ready to do parkrun, only to find that they don’t start until 8am; so we didn’t get to do this after all.  Today we headed out to visit Swan Valley and travel the Food and Wine Trail – we visited Heaford Glen Winery, Faber Vineyard, Lancaster Wines, Mandoon Estate, Swan Valley Wines, Talijanich Wines, Twin Hill Wines and Windy Creek Estate; we also visited Mondo Nougat, Morish Nuts, The House of Honey and Whisler’s Chocolate Co.  Drew found a nice Grenache, I found some nice port.  Whistler’s Chocolate Co had two amazing chocolate sculptures that were truly impressive.  


We also visited Whiteman Park – this is a massive park, with some lovely sections and a few shops.
This is a great party for family get-togethers and parties as they have many large undercover picnic areas which can be reserved for a particular group and plenty of space for running around.  When we got back to the caravan park we went for a swim to cool down (it was 40 degrees to day) and we saw friends we met in Kununurra – both sets of kids were equally excited and it was great to catch up with the parents.
