Simon Warden a mate on exchange in Austria came and stayed for a few nights. We actually live about 10 minutes away from each other in Southland. I rang him up and said I was here and he came down on the train that afternoon! It was awesome to catch up, this day we went biking. Did about 60km which isn't a bad effort.

A view out over beautiful green Styria, see how much it looks like NZ!

One day we did a tour of 3 or 4 vineyards in the region. The wine indusrty is pretty big here. Pretty good stuff too not that I'm an expert. The architecture in some of the winery buildings was pretty cool too.
