By July 2006, we needed another break. As we had not been to Stanthorpe for about 5 years, we decided to visit some of the old walking trails and some of the new wineries.
The trails were the same, but we are older and less energetic than we were :-) Nevertheless, a fine time was experienced and we hope you enjoy the photos.
