Tabitha and Harri kitten-bounce into the buffet area, drooling over the wonderful choices. In their excitement they bounce into the buffet table, rocking it just enough to cause the wine bottles to clink together. Seeing that they are in danger of creating havoc, both kittens force themselves to calm down a little. Tabitha begins preparing a tray with several dishes of cream and a little bit of all the different kinds of food. "Rebecca, Sundance, if you guyz wants to find us a good place to sit I'll bring over dis tray of goodies." Tabitha H'lo....hiya.... Rebecca inbited me tu joyn yuawl fur luntsh.

Tiger and TV are both suitably impurressed and neither says a word, they both think, great fud, great weafur and great ladycatz, duzint get any betterer dan diz, they look at each ofur and hi paw silently Her Royal Highness Cleopatra Silvercat wrote in message ... Darius hands the keys to the Ferrari to Anaïs: "Here - rather than renting you a Fiat or Peugeot for the day, I thought that you'd like to try my new toy. I'll see the four of you at the winery at 2:00 for lunch with the bus of other kitties - and the Signora at LaBuca is already cooking up a storm for your friends - and she has a fresh shipment of lobsters if anycat (winking at Tiger) would like one! Ciao!" With that Anaïs hugs her uncle, grabs Cleo by the paw, and runs to the car, "C'mon gise!" she yells to Tiger and TV, who have somehow, mysteriously found themselves in the back seat. Anaïs hits the red "start" button, and all 12 cylinders roar to life with a healthy rumble. She engages the "launch" button, revs the engine to 5000 RPM, and hits the right paddle-shifter. With an ungodly roar and nary a squeal, the car launches down the country road, gathering speed as Anaïs flips up thru all six gears as the trees turn into a blur, and farmers in donkey carts scramble to get out of the way. The narrow road turns downhill, and a sweeping right-hand curve comes up quickly. Anaïs stands on the brakes and snaps down four gears, as the bright yellow coupe slides gracefully around the corner and Anaïs and Cleo high-five each other as she accelerates up through the gears again. "Isn't this a blast, gise?" she asks the boy-cats, who are looking rather wide-eyed. "Uh, duz this thing haff seet-belts?" asks Tiger quietly... Under the expert guidance of Mlle. Anais, the yellow speed machine roars through the valley past vineyards, orchards, family farms, and more beautiful scenery than the kitties have observed anywhere else on this trip. Spotting a particularly beautiful shady glen beside a stream as they fly past, Mlle. Anais skillfully downshifts and slows, whips into a quick U-turn, and returns to the glen. All four cats exit the car and stretch their paws. Cleo takes TV's paw and wanders towards the stream. "Isn't this just a lovely spot, TV?" "Sure iz", he replies, "dis is way nicer dan da scenery where we did da Catolympics." "Oh, look, fishies!". Cleo makes a couple of half-hearted bats towards the fish swimming past in the clear water, but tries not to splash herself of TV. "I sure wouldn't mind having a stream in my yard at home. I guess that's why I like the mountain place so much - that stream in the back yard is so much fun to watch. I can lie there beside the stream and watch it for hours on end." Cleo then wanders over to the nearby bushes and picks a handful of wild berries for her and TV. TV and Cleo watch the fishies for a while, then hunt some of the buggies they see flying around. They notice Mlle. Anais and Tiger also amusing themselves beside the stream and doing their own buggie hunting. After an hour or so of relaxing, playing, smurgling, and smooching all four kitties decide at the same time that it's time to get on with the tour. With a wild yell the two ladycats make a mad dash for the car. The two boycats grin at each other at the sight of their ladies having so much fun, then trot to join them in the car. Anais gets the engine roaring again, shoots them out onto the road, and they are once again flying past vineyards, orchards, and farms. Every farmcat they pass waves at them, smiling at the young kitties obviously having such a wonderful time. It also helps that they recognize Darius' roadster. After driving past one particularly large vineyard for several minutes Anais suprises everyone by cutting the wheel hard to the right, putting the sports car into a tight spin. Once the dust settles and they can all breathe again, everybody notices that they are parked beside a large cream-and-white bus, with Community kitties just starting to exit the bus. As the kitties exit the bus they assemble in the courtyard in front of a very old but very well maintained stone house. A granite fountain splashes noisily near the center of the courtyard. They are shaded by olive trees and lush bougainvillea and surrounded by spectacular rose bushes. A line of olive trees continues off in both directions, shielding the lands behind them from view. Darius and Maria walk around the corner of the house and approach the kitties once again. "Welcome to my humble abode", greets Darius. "We have a simple luncheon prepared for you, and have arranged a tour of the facility as well." He waves his paw, and a couple of wait-kitties come around the corner of the house, each pushing a cart. The wait-kitties circulate among the assembled Community cats, askign their preference of beverage - fresh cream or one of several varieties of wine. Once all the kitties have a glass in paw, Darius stands on the edge of the fountain and raises his won glass. "Salud, everykitty, and have a wonderful time here!" With that he takes a sip of his wine. Darius and Maria then lead the kitties around the corner of the house. As they reach the rear of the house they are greeted by a spectacular sight - a huge vineyard stretching off to the right and left as far as they can see, a nearby building with much fruit processing equipment, another large building that appears to be set into a hillside, and off in the distance the buildings of a dairy farm. Darius leads them into a spacious fenced yard with many trees and comfortable pillows. "As you can see, we grow a few grapes here. The large building in front of you is where we sort and grade the grapes. We keep the best for our own uses, and sell the remainder to other local wineries. Also in there is the equipment we use to crush the grapes, filter the crush, do the technical work like correcting the raw specific gravity, and starting the initial fermentation. The smaller building that is dug into the hillside is the fermentation room. The temperature is controlled by the earth, and the wine resides there while it ferments and while it ages. The larger bulidings off to the left are our dairy farm. After all, what's the point of producing excellent wine if you don't also have access to wonderfully fresh cream? A kitty's life would not be complete if he had one but not the other. We produce what I believe to be some of the sweetest cream in this valley. Come, join me inside. I have a buffet set up for you. All 6 of the varieties of wine we produce, chilled fresh sweet cream, a wonderful selection of cheeses, and a few light dishes my chef enjoys preparing. We have some tables set up inside, and you are also welcome to bring your lunches out here under the trees to enjoy this lovely breeze." With that, all the kitties make thier way into Darius and Maria's house. There in the back room they find a buffet to please every cat - wine, cream, cheese, roast beef, turkey, salmon, an assortment of canned cat foods and kibble. Cleopatra strolls to the buffet table and loads up a platter with a little bit of everything. TV joins her, filling four glasses with the excellent nip wines. Cleo and TV head for a large cushion under a sycamore tree and wave for Mlle. Anais and Tiger to join them. "Mlle. Anais, I am so very impressed! Your uncle and aunt have such an impressive operation, and they are such hospitable hosts!" Cleopatra |
