Des and Dee's Wedding 24 September 2011

Thursday 
We flew down to Newcastle early in the morning then drove to the Hunter Valley for the afternoon Buck's  Party.

The boys gathered at Tempest Two Vineyard at 2:30pm for a couple of drinks (OK, a lot of drinks).
We spent around 4 hours drinking eating and catching up with friends and enjoying "good" conversation. It was great to catch up with Des, Gary, Baz, Geoff and Rob as it has been awhile. It was the perfect way to celebrate Des's Bucks. After a quick change of clothes the reconvened at Harrigans Irish bar, for dinner and a few more drinks.


Friday 
Hot sunny day - we drove to Gosford to catch up with Aunt Riet (82) and her boyfriend Bernie (92). Took them out to Terrial for a seafood lunch at the Cove. Bernie then showed us around the various beaches around the area. It was great to catch up and have alook at a beautiful part of the area.




Back in time to change and go out for dinner at the Hunter Valley Brewery (Potters) and catch up with everyone.

Saturday
The weather was a little overcast and we spent the morning at the Hunter Valley Gardens for the spring festival. Lovely morning out.

Then back to have a rest and get changed for the big event!
D & D's wedding was held in the garden/ vineyard behind Roberts Restaurant.
Lovely setting.....


Des was looking very daper and couldn't stand still...
