New Years Eve

The house is suddenly filled with visitors from home.  Stan & Cathy, Rachelle, Paul & Maryanne, Maurice & Jeanette and Denis & Shannon dropped in to visit and celebrate the New Year.

Maryanne, Cathy, Rachelle and Yvonne test out the "feel" of 
the grass on the practice putting green at Rec 3

What do you do while waiting for midnight on New Years Eve?
Wine tasting of course!
5 wines ranging in price from $1.99 to $14.00, arranged
 in random order, to be blind tasted.

Stan keeping secret notes.
Judge Maryanne ensuring that the contestants remain orderly.

Cathy, Rachelle and Jeanette sniffing, sipping and savouring.

Serious note taking by Jeanette.

Maurice showed the best skill by Guessing the Bogle Petit Syrah as the most expensive wine.
Quote of the night: "I don't even like wine but I can still pick the most expensive one."

In the end, the most popular wine was the Little Penguin Shiraz $3.33 

Midnight arrives and we celebrated with our special musical instruments.

More music please.
