A Long Weekend in Rutherglen Part 2
Saturday 21st September
After visiting Pfeiffer Winery we had lunch at Poachers Paradise, then visited the Tourist Information office, which has tastings of Rutherglen's famous port and muscat.
Sunday 21st September
We went to church, followed by a lovely morning tea, and were invited to their monthly film night, which was to be held in Corowa. Two of the Rutherglen members offered to drive us there and back.
After church we explored the old town, especially the Rutherglen Hotel, where we were given an unexpected guided tour of the stables and the morgue.
After a scenic walk around Lake King in Rutherglen Park we went to Parker's Pies for lunch.
In the afternoon we walked to two of Rutherglen's great wineries, first Campbells and then Stanton and Killeen.
All Saints Estate, Rutherglen
Pulling into the driveway of All Saints Estate, you may be mistaken for thinking you’ve accidentally driven to a faraway land. A canopy of trees give way to a grand castle, where all the wine-infused magic happens.

Albury-Wodonga, Australia
Albury-Wodonga is a twin city straddling the Murray River border of the two south-eastern Australian states of New South Wales and Victoria. Albury is the city on the New South Wales bank of the river, Wodonga the Victorian city on the southern bank. For all practical purposes related to travel, the two cities are one. The cities are a gateway to the gourmet area surrounding Beechworth, the mountain town of Bright and the Rutherglen winery area. They also make a good stopping-off point on the drive between Melbourne and Sydney.
Whilst in many senses Albury-Wodonga operates as a single community (sometimes to the dismay of residents), the twin cities possess parallel municipal governments and state government services. The closer proximity of Melbourne and the local predominance of Australian Rules Football perhaps give Albury a closer cultural affiliation with Victoria. Grand plans were made by the government 30 years ago to turn Albury-Wodonga into a major inland city and the cities have grown rapidly from sleepy country towns to major regional centres.
The Wiradjuri people were probably the tribe of indigenous Australians resident immediately before the advent of Europeans in the area in the 1820s-1830s. European settlement was first gazetted at this popular river crossing in 1839 and after a decade a small settlement was well established. 1851 saw the separation of Victoria from New South Wales as a separate colony with the Murray marking much of the border, and Albury and Wodonga developed as a border town, with customs points between a protectionist Victoria and a free trade favouring New South Wales.
A permanent bridge was built over the Murray river in 1860, with horse drawn coach connections running between the train stations in Wodonga and New South Wales, each running trains on different railway gauges. Even after the rail bridge was built, trains from Victoria ran to Albury, and trains from New South Wales ran to Wodonga, as the governments could not agree on a common interchange station. Albury eventually emerged as the choice for interchange, but the railway gauges remained incompatible until the 1960s when the standard gauge track was laid to Melbourne allowing the first trains to run from Sydney to Melbourne without a change in Albury. The size of Albury station still reflects this heritage.
Albury was also the focus of attempts to open up the inland trade along the Murray, with paddlesteamers seen as a technology that would open up large tracts of farmland to the market. Although strongly supported by the South Australian government the paddlesteamers were never really a financial success, but the wharves and paddlesteamers in Albury today are at least a tribute to the tenacity of the steamer pioneers.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
New World wines are those wines produced outside the traditional winegrowing areas of Europe and the Middle East, in particular from Argentina, Australia, Canada, Chile, New Zealand, South Africa and the United States (primarily California). The phrase connotes a distinction between these New World wines and those wines produced in Old World countries with a long-established history of wine production – most notably, France, Italy, Germany, Spain and Portugal.
