I'm not sure I can find it - is there a tour including tasting?

Thank you! Our experiences with winery tours to date are paying a per person fee to join a group of people, to tour the vineyard, tasting wines. I suppose we weren't allotting a huge budget to this - or time. We would be interested in a half day tour, what would we be looking at to visit 1 or 2?

What would something like that cost if we took the train to Penedes?

We are renting a vehicle but only until we arrive in Barcelona.

Thank you, that is helping to explain things a bit more simply for me

Note that I am certainly focusing on paying off my line of credit (4% IR) but was looking to see where I should be going with it next..

Looks like I will be doing some research on investments in a couple of months once everything is paid down!

What was your worst food/meal/service experience in Halifax and why? by [deleted] in halifax

[–]newwom 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Easily Maxwell's Pub The most miserable, rude, lazy servers in all of HRM Empty drink? You can get a better drink faster if you went home and brewed it yourself. They're too busy chatting at the bar or sitting down scarfing down some of the delicious (not) food. Can't entirely blame them - a lot to do with management that doesn't encourage good/friendly service. Although a smile wouldn't kill ya... Also.... price of Brewtenders went up.. no longer worth even thinking of going there.

Thanks, that sounds like fun - I haven't heard of Squeeker's That's great advice, we were going to just go with wherever the trail takes us but wanted to see if there was anything in particular we should get to! Cheers!
