Vasil helpfully stopped in places that were great for photos, and was good about adjusting our stops slightly when the rain started so that we could avoid getting too wet! It was a great introduction to the city.”

Dinner was served in the cosy Truffle Room where we warmed up next to the huge fireplace ( and also by the fiery cherry Brandy they produce on the estate)! We ate, we drank, we met nice, warm people and we had the best of time! Thank you, Casey and Angel for your hospitality, for your warmth and the passion you put in everything you do! We'll come again!…”
