The folk of the Barossa Valley have done a superb job of looking after us during our two night stay. Each of us were billeted out to various home for the two nights. Wonderful food, showers, washing done and transport too and from organised events.
Yesterday evening Chris and my hosts (John and Neadra) who are semi-retired dairy farmers and grape growers took us to Penfold's winery and then out to the farm to watch the cows being milked. In the evening we were taken to another farm where we were provided with a bounteous meal with all the team and other hosts.

Dinner with team and hosts.
Today it was off to church in the morning (divided up between about six local churches). Most had an opportunity to speak to the congregations about B4B.
The afternoon was spent on a bus tour around the district and another wonderful afternoon tea at an UC building that is now used as a place for local to come and 'connect' with others. Followed by dinner at our hosts home then off to bed.
My sister, Yvonne, drove over from Mt Barker to see me. This was very kind of her and it was great to catch up with her for a couple of hours.

Weather was cold and showering on and off all day. I now have a cold so hope I can continue riding tomorrow.
