The Morning After the Wine Before!

The Hunter Valley Gardens.


The sculpture in the background is titled,'Grandmother,' but Nanny liked the sentiment.
This garden was a mass of colour, shape, flora and fauna (well ones cut out of bits of privet anyway)



I have to confess I got a bit carried away with photos of the waterfall and the gardens generally. I think it's because everytime my Dad took a photo, I thought I'd better take one too incase I missed out. Alex soon got caught up in this photo battle too, as he got his camera out; although he seemed more obsessed with taking photos of people's bottoms! (no doubt the phrase, does my bum look big in this?... springs to mind!)



We joined the Mad Hatter for tea, although I could only manage half a cup! We often quote lines from this scene, sad I know , but we can't help it...."mustard?.....let's not be thilly!"says the Mad Hatter, when he is trying to mend the White Rabbit's watch. We love that bit!!
Chris wanted me to say something rude about the Mad Hatter's spout...and Chris's bottle in Alice's mouth!!!



This was the despondent scene part way around the gardens...it says it all..."we've seen enough!
We have had a whole weekend of being dragged around vineyards and gardens and we're blooming tired (excuse the really crap pun) . Can we go home now?????"
