Naturally, it wasn't the case. But we had a guitar. And we prepared barbecue. And ate grapes. And watched how the men are making vine. And then drank the one from last year.
About vine making - somehow everyone imagines it the way it's shown in the movies or some old paintings, or super-traditional festivals: people taking of shoes, or putting on rubber-ones, jumping into a wooden barrel and squeezing grapes with their feet, while music plays in the background... Weeelll, it is just not true. Now humankind has machines for everything - grape squeezing as well. It is faster, cleaner and much easier this way - and all you have to do is watch. Then they leave the juice for some time in the barrel; poor it into another barrel; and just wait for it to become alcoholic. You should just know when to stop waiting, or otherwise you will get chacha instead of vine.
And on top of this instructive afternoon - I learned what you do if you get into hail on the way home!... You panic - but just a little bit. Then you pull over, try to find some shelter - trees, or even higher bushes will do if there is nothing better.... And if the car is still out, you undress and put your clothes on it! That is how you love your car - and we hope some day it will pay us back for it...
puikiai!
