Barossa markets and a bonus!

Sheri and I set out this morning as I wanted to check out the markets, a craft place and a lavender farm. She made the decision  to come even though it wasnt her thing, she does not like lavender. We were going to take the Jeep and I unlocked it but it didnt unlock. Short story, the battery was flat as between us, we had left the fridge attached to the battery all night! Warren hooked the Jeep up to the battery charger in the van and by this afternoon it was ready to go again.

So change of plan, we took the Isuzu and motoring down the road and came across the markets quicker than we thought. Again much of the produce was there for the tasting, I bought some pickles, pear and fennel and two Cornish pastries ($2 each)  Warren and I had them for lunch and they were great, mainly carrot but they werent over sweet.

As we left the market, this was across the road.

It is an automated grape picker, the yellow machine went up the rows and shook the bunches off the vines and then shot them into a trailer towed behind another tractor which was travelling in tandem, fascinating to watch.
