Milawa excursion

So i'm back from my Milawa excursion, and surprisingly i did not take photo, not that i did not want to, but some part of the facility does not allow cameras, and that when i do have my camera with me, i was enjoying myself so much with my classmates that i totally forget to take photos... never did it cross my mind until when i remembered and wanted to take, it was during the journey home, and was 5.30 and the freaking sun has already gone down, so it's dark, and even if i switch on my flash, i cannot really focus, coz it was the bus shaking..... so too bad then, i'll try to tell everything so u can picture it.......

Well, the excursion to Brown Brothers started at 8, we left at 8 and the journey took about 2 half hours, we reached there about 10.30 or was it 45, oh well, around that time....
The journey in the bus was really awesome, there were 2 classes, 1 is our class, another is a class from another lecturer which happens to teach us as well, so during the journey everybody joked around, listened to music, sing along.... yes, singing along like a karaoke (God i miss singing karaoke) anyway, we ate, exchange our snacks we prepared with other, and 1 fella that works in McDonalds had 3 packets of mini M&M used for some milkshake or drinks in Mcdonald.... threw at each other & tried to catch it lol.

So we reached the destination, and the 1st thing we did was cheese tasting, big, small, hard, soft, cow's milk, goat's milk, white, yellow & blue cheese, everything was there, of course i tasted everything, some were really nice, but some had a strong after taste which i did not like, but the taste when it was in the mouth was really good, we were there for 45 minutes... then we went to another area....

Mustards!!! the next was mustard tasting, and they lined up from the mild to the strongest mustard, it was really good, i mean it almost tastes like wasabi, although wasabi is much much more stronger and stinging, so it was basically not a problem for me, while all the others stopped at around the medium strength ones, we were there for about 30 mins, then we left to the next stop......

LUNCH time at brown brothers restaurant, was really nice, lamb & pork medallions, with the desserts poached pear pie with ice cream beside, was really nice, another was chocolate cake, it was also nice, and we had wine to accompany the dish, was a brown brother red wine, can't remember the name, but it accompanies the meals pretty well, and then there's another wine to accompany the desserts, it was a honey wine thingy, dark yellowish colored, and was so good, sweet & bitter in a correct mix along with the desserts.... was just perfect combination... so we were there for about 1 hour to 2 hours, just talking and joking around and enjoying the wine as well...

So after lunch we visited the wine making area which was just outside and around the restaurant area, and we went thru all the places, from top to toe, whole thing was about half an hour, and then comes the best part, WINE TASTING.... heheh, oh and something else i have to tell u later.....

The wine tasting time was awesome, sparkling wine to white to red to fruity wines, in total probably all the wines tasted sums up to 2 full glass, and yeah i really like the sparkling fruity red wine, and it was freaking cheap the wine there....... i wanted to buy, but then i know that coz i am allergic to alcohol, thats why i did not buy....... and then we started our journey back home.... it was about 3.30

During the journey back, it was all the same thing again as the journey when we were going there, we did stop at a small store which was pretty interesting, but for me although was interesting, but somehow it just reminds me of some normal bakery back in m'sia..... anyway, we reached back at the Institute at around 6.30, and outside looks like it was already 8 or later, oh well, this is what they meant by day light saving i guess..... so as because i drank 2 glass of wines today, plus another full glass during lunch, i was expecting myself to be covered in those red rashes or vein appearing on my body the next day......

I woke up, and guess that...... no red rashes or anything red or whatsoever appeared on my body at all, and just as what all my friends that has been telling me since last time, that the more i drink, and as i go on drinking from time to time, it will disappear, and i guess my time is now, i guess that has been gotten rid of..... nyahaha....... all gone,
but still it does not mean i'll be drinking more than last time

but what a waste, i did not buy the wines back there..... was freaking cheap -.-
