Day 36: Drive Sydney to Hunter Valley & Stay at The Vintage!

Driving up the Hunter Valley into wine country of Australia I could sense I was coming to a very special place. What a beautiful resort The Vintage is! Top-of-the-line, first class in everything they do! I can’t wait to play the Greg Norman designed course in the morning!

Scrabble rules at The Vintage. Golf, resort accommodations and spa, that is a triple-word score for me!
