We harvested the last grapes of the season, and work slowed down after that. On Friday, I was looking for cheap flights and I found such a good deal that I bought a plane ticket back home to Santa Rosa on December 1st. I will be happy to see friends and family and they are excited that I am coming back home. As an added bonus, my flight includes a 23-hour layover in Las Vegas. As soon as I told my friends, they wanted to meet me there.
I visited a pool/spa in a nearby town which was very relaxing after the harvest. Alain enjoys rugby, so we watched New Zealand beat Argentina to reach the semi-finals then had lunch. He said he knows a guy in the South of France where I might be able to work.
Alain gave me a book about Tokaj, so I have been reading that and earlier today he said I can go to Tokaj later this week, rather than next week. So I need to finish the book and prepare for another harvest.
