Cherries and Wine :)

I did my first tour through the Marine base today, Cherry Picking and Wine tasting! It is hard to get on the tours here because the sign ups are at least 2 months in advance and fill up quick; however, I was on the wait list and being by myself made it a lot easier to get off the list. It was a great day and I was able to chat up some people. Happy Father' Day!

Cherry Picking:

We had a half an hour for all you could eat cherries! We were in a covered green house and were able to pick off any of the trees. They also walked around with buckets of cherries. They were delicious!








Wine Tasting:

After cherry picking we then went to Myoshi Winery. First, we went to BBQ and then walked into a tasting room/store. It was different, you just walked around with mini cups and went to the casks and poured it yourself. They also had pricer wines that they poured for you. It was different and a lot of fun!




Rest Stop:

On the way home we made a quick rest stop and stopped at a look out for Myjima Island (more to come on that later) and of course a Starbucks!
