Why, sometimes Ive believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

The first time a story which resembled the Alice in Wonderland we know today was told was on July 4th 1862 by a man named, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) on the River Thames, he was on a boat trip with his friend Reverend Robinson Duckworth, along with Alice, Lorina and Edith Liddell.

At the time Alice Liddell was only ten years old, and as you may have guessed, Alice Liddell became the inspiration for the name Alice in Wonderland, the Liddell girls enjoyed Charless story so much that they kept asking him to tell it again and again, and to write it down, as he knows we did, I mean, as we did he knows, no, thats not right. as we know he did, what is the hatter with me.

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote multiple versions of his story before publishing, adding new characters each time, its amazing to know the Mad Hatter and the Cheshire Cat were not in his first version, but thankfully, they were added before his book was ready to be published.

No wonder youre late, why this watch is exactly two days slow.

Some other characters that were added were named after Alices sisters and himself, the birds Lory and Eaglet were named after Lorina and Edith and the Dodo bird was named after Charles last name, Dodgson.

Who in the world am I? Ah, thats the great puzzle!

As many authors do, he ended up using a different name when publishing his book, he called himself by what many know him as today, Lewis Carroll, he gave one of his books to Alice as an early Christmas present in 1864, before it was even published, the next year in 1865 he self-published his book, little did he know, it would become one of the most popular childrens books ever written, made into films, sold as merchandise, videos games and now even playable in virtual reality, it is a story that has the possibility of living on forever.

Its no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.

A couple of interesting Facts to digest mmmmm

It takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!

Motzenbcker has a history dating back to 1758, currently, 4 generations of the Menger-Krug family are helping in creating Motzenbckers Still Wines & Sparkling Wines.

All the grapes used in a bottle of Motzenbcker are grown on their land and they even have vines going on 40 years old.

Another interesting piece of information to take note of is that on the first full moon Motzenbcker lumber wood to create their large moon oak barrels which contain their very best wines, with only their Chardonnay and Riesling grapes gaining entry, they are allowed to ripen in these barrels for 11 months.
