Back Inside

After transiting the grounds, we went into the storage rooms where the cognac ages.  It smells wonderful and is scrupulously clean.  The tube snaking across the floor in one of  the photos is transferring cognac to the bottling area.

The very last photo is the area set up for our tasting.  As you can see, we tasted a lot of brandy!  They had a very nice cold spread of food for us, too.

Last Of This

Knowing that I'd made progress but not finished this, the owner asked for it back.  I'm happy that I can add something new to my rotation instead of this and that it had a lot of progress.

Feeling Progress

The lower quadrants of the square are coming along and I've even started the outer fencing of the lower part, too.  I'm at a point where I feel like I'm making a lot of progress often.

Outdoors At The Factory

The Kvint factory has some surprisingly lovely grounds.  The building facades, not so much.  Anyway, photos of some of their gardens and their aviary.

Making Some Waves

I'm working on a satin stitch band now; it's made up of three different rows.  After this, it's back to backstitching.

Science Geeking In The Museum

Our final destination in Transnistria was the Kvint factory.  At the museum, I kind of geeked out with all the science-y stuff.

Nearing The Corner

I am also nearly to the top left medallion.  It's going to be much easier to stitch once it's done.
