"Three Divas" at McLaren Vale

Our 50th wedding anniversary actually happened on the same day of the week that we were married - Saturday 11 January. We're not sure what the chances of that are. It is obviously something cyclical.
Another coincidence - the couple occupying the adjoining chalet type "Diva" were there for their wedding on our 50th anniversary - actually at about the same time of day too.
We decided on a very quiet weekend of good food and wine, comfortable accommodation and a pleasant location close to home. What better than McLaren Vale in our Southern Vales wine region.
The small single bedroom cottage at "The Three Divas" suited us perfectly - good facilities for relaxing, doing our own cooking. A quaint old cottage with 2 ft thick walls, tastefully restored with quality modern facilities.
We cooked and ate mostly on the completely private back veranda, did not turn the television (with Foxtel) on even once, spent evenings walking and then reading in the lounge, used the magnificent double bath tub and slept well.
