Anywhere out in the bush, with twenty to eighty sledding "friends" and up to three hundred dogs. Huge campfires, bush bbq's and the sounds of dogs screaming as your preparing to race. Just magic - cant wait for our next season to start (only eight months to go!!). Otherwise, give me my favourite little vineyard in Dixons Creek Victoria - Allinda - only a short drive from home. The best cab savs going. For food, you cant beat the Heathcote Bakery (opposite the Footy ground) - the best cakes and pastries!! Or, the bakery in Nagambie (at the top end as your on the way out of town towards Shepparton). I think I'm giving a bad picture. But, one always needs a good bakery after a hard weekend of racing. By the way Shelley - you rock!!<br><b>References : </b><br> It involves my sport – sled dog racing. Anywhere out in the bush, with twenty to eighty sledding "friends" and up to three hundred dogs.

They held up the raw steak for photos apparently this much meat in their country (European) would have been priceless and not something they had ever seen and there we were just casually throwing it on the barbie. I knew that we are a spoilt lucky country but had not had such a clear picture until that moment. Re the wine experience--- bicycling around the Barossa wine region. The roads are very hilly not that you would notice as there are lots of stops for wine tasting. The experience was unique as with all that exercise my taste in wine changed dramatically from dry reds to sweet whites. Thank goodness it changed back again after the trip as I worked at a winery. The best part of the job was on night shift. At the end of the night we had wine tasting in the barbecue area as some wines had fallen off the line or something (rescued ?)and the reds were the best ! so there are lots of us out here with great jobs<br><b>References : </b><br> It was unique because of the way the visitors from overseas gawked at the steak on the barbie.

The food, wine, service - not to mention the breathtaking views - were absolutely outstanding. Being 36 floors up is enough to make your head spin and if you are feeling the slighest bit jaded about Sydney life, just head up there, take in the glamour and you'll come back down loving this city.<br><b>References : </b><br> The most interesting and memorable restaurant experience I have had this year would have to be at the Shangri-La Hotel’s restaurant, Altitude.

The local police officer came for a visit and delivered some meat from a freshly slaughtered cow. A few seconds over the fire and the meat was incredibly tender and the nicest I have ever tasted. On a different topic, Shelley, you are an excellent presenter on The Great Outdoors. Incredibly funny, so natural, I love the laugh, and incredibly sexy!<br><b>References : </b><br> Sitting around a campfire on the birdsville track. 3-4 people, a billion stars, excellent company, no one for miles around.

I would say eating Croc, Emu and Grubs at Margret River.... I went with my Parents to this lovely little winery in Pemberton WA. Its name is "lost lake" I think you should take a visit on the show... Their wine is wonderful. My mum loved it so much...that for mothers day... I got her a Case of Honey Rouge shipped from WA.<br><b>References : </b><br> Last year, I missed out on 4 months of Grade 6 to Travel around Australia…
