Wine on the River Drava

The music and painting schedule has been hectic and today I ran out of puff. So I took a break and wandered down to the Vinotek on the River Drava.
Maribor is in the middle of a wine growing area and the Vinotek is a place where you can try local wines (delicious!)  I wondered about mosquitos as dusk fell but although the river looks placid it is quite fast flowing. I sat contemplating the sun setting over the bridge that unites the two halves of Maribor. It was very therapeutic and I couldn't resist getting out my paint box.
