Having a Sip at Barossa Valley
... a optical illusion of the road seeming to go uphill rather than magnetism.
Via Clare Valley, one of the many wine areas in the region, we reached Tanunda in the heart of the famous Barossa Valley. The first settlers in the region were mainly Lutherans from Germany and so many street names and places are having German names.
