When you do the wine tasting, definately buy a bottle (or two or three) of their Ice Wine. My dad has been in the wine, liqour, and spirits industry for 20 years and he said it was by far the best ice wine he has ever had! Enjoy!
If you love live music, Memphis and New Orleans are two places to see raw, unpretentious blues, jazz, funk, and R&B. Many times, you can see these bands for free!
I did my first Contiki in 2001 alone!It was the best thing I ever did and I had an absolute ball! I am about to go to America with people I met on my last Contiki tour in mid 2006! Just do it!
