Grape land

So the euphoria of the World Cup is over.....what's next ?

Here in Radebeul, other than watching paint dries, perhaps we can watch the grapes ripen, which I reckon should be pretty soon...

Wine business is big here and wineries are everywhere. This hill behind the hotel is full of terraced vineyards.

Up on the hill, the Spithause restaurant overlook the whole area.

Another vineyard plus restaurant at a road junction.

...yet another one alongside the wall.

After some recce, I chanced upon this stairway t0 heaven.

Still panting from the climb .....puff puff ....


At the Spithaus, you can opt for casual (that means cheap) dining outside or fine dining inside the scorching interior (its 35 degree celcius sans air-con). I opted for the casual al-fresco under the umbrella ....which incidentally offered a better view too.
