Romantic Get Away to Orange

Last weekend my husband and I drove to Orange to celebrate our first wedding anniversary: beautiful town in New South Wales surrounded by wineries, hotels, restaurants and very nice people.

We wanted to have a romantic weekend to celebrate our special first anniversary of marriage and we nailed it. We visites few wineries in the area tasting all they had available,  and there was a place where they produce cider.

It is a small town of friendly people,  with some nice options to go out and eat out.  Our favorites wineries were Stockman's Ridge, De Salis and Phillip Shaw, and to go out and eat we loved The Union Bank.

In our way back we stopped in Bathurst to visit Stone Pine, a very nice distilery. My favorites were the rum, the limecello and the apple schnapp.

If you're planning a little get away, keep Orange in mind.

"The closer you look, the less you see"

Movie: Now You See Me.... I just need to say that it is a GREAT MOVIE!

It combines suspense, Las Vegas, illusionists, and a great cast: Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Michael Caine.

You just have to sit back, try not to think too much and enjoy the movie.
