Now there's my happy girl...

Well fed, rested and watered it shows!

And now the wedding

Into the church for a Catholic wedding. Bail is 90% Hindu but Henny the bride is Indo Chinese. Church profusely and stylishly decorated with roses. Local choir. Beautiful service. Wonderful elegant entrance-The groomsmen all In tails accompanying the groom. Then  the bridesmaids. Then pageboys and girls.  And finally the father with the bride. 

An hour and a quarter later and a very happy couple leave the church beneath a shower of rosé petals.

Reception on the beach beneath the palm trees with local dancers, show band , fire eaters, fire works and an enormous strawberry flavoured wedding cake etc at the Hotel Santrian with the most amazing buffet where all tastes and cultures are well catered for and the deed is done. 

What a fantastic day and well worth the visit. Quite an experience and certainly the most luxurious and exotic wedding yours truly has ever been invited to.

Thanks for the invite David and Henny wouldn't have missed it for the world and we wish you both much joy in your future life together!

Now she's happy!!!

Give the girl a bike and she is away.... Still no romance but the girl is smiling at last!

Paddling on the beach and still no romance!!

A mile and a half of beach deserted except for the local fishing boats being pushed out to set sail and still it doesn't stir the girls romantic bone....hey ho. Might as well have been at Seaton Carew!
