The wonderful folks at the Gunners’ Barracks gave us a complimentary Champagne high tea as a thank you gift after our wedding, so we decided to use it to celebrate our three-month-versary over Easter weekend.
It was a bit of a gray day, but the view still looked spectacular.
The husband. Musing over the last time we stood in this exact spot three months earlier.
Elegant china.
Tasty savories – scones, curry triangles and cheese tarts.
The sandwiches and delicacies came wrapped in a napkin to protect them from the predatory kookaburras. The waitstaff told us they liked to target the sandwiches… we laughed and started to eat up. True to the warning, a kookaburra swooped in and snatched a sandwich off a plate and took off before I caught a good look at it. Stealthy little bugger. Seriously impressive sandwich-stealing ninja skills.
The sandwiches – a mere moment before the kookaburra stole one.
Beautiful teas in polished tea pots. Mine was called “blueberry muffin” and indeed tasted like its namesake.
A very civilised way to spend a public holiday.
Amazing view from Georges Head.
I love you husband!
