Brys Estate Vineyard and Winery

MJ and I visited this nice winery last October.  That was probably the trip where we bot got COVID.  Fortunately, we ended up okay, but I know 600k+ individuals across the United States (any many more across the world) didn’t make it.  My heart goes out to all those families.

 

Back to the winery…they have a beautiful setting, nice facility and great wine.  I captured these rows of grapes as we were driving away.

Chateau Chantal

This is one of my favorite wineries!!  If you’re ever in the Traverse City Michigan area, head up Old Mission Peninsula, do yourself a favor and stop in for a sip.  By the way, the views overlooking West and East arm of Grand Traverse Bay are amazing from their location as well.

Wine Bar

This is the wine bar and steak house on one of the Carnival Cruise ships.  But I honestly, don’t remember which ship this is.  How sad is that, when I can’t remember which ship this is?  Anyone out there in the Internet world know?

Some of the spaces on these ships are so cool.  The design, textures, colors and just how warm they feel is appealing to me.  I can’t help but see the beauty in these spaces.

Boschendal Winery

I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ll say it again.  South Africa was AMAZING!!  It’s on my “return to” list.  We had such a wonderful time.  Great food.  Beautiful landscapes.  Cool wildlife.  We lucked out with great weather.  Extremely affordable and we visited some outstanding wineries.   One of them was this cool estate called Boschendal Winery.  They had this great outdoor setting where we sampled numerous wines.  Here is the link to their site:  http://www.boschendal.com/
