We Will

After a couple of days of overcast weather, the clouds cleared and the sun shone brightly for our friends, Juliet and Mike, on their wedding day. It all started with us getting dressed up, with Anna in
that dress, and walking down to our local ferry wharf where we had time for a couple of pictures before the ferry arrived:
Then, we walked up to Garrison church to reserve our position at the back, just in case Caitlin decided to play up.
She did chirp a couple of times, but was generally well-behaved during the service. Most of the congregation was then sent to a local pub while the formal photos were taken; after which we all met at Walsh Bay to board a chartered ferry to take us to Taronga Zoo:
Most people were upstairs on the boat, so we had plenty of room downstairs; and Anna got lots of compliments about her dress.
It's often said that the giraffes have the best view of any species of the Sydney harbour and, from our vantage point once we got into the zoo, I have to admit it looked pretty good.
The food and speeches were all very good, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. Caitlin was very well behaved, especially since she was the target of motherly affection by most of the women there.
We got home a little before 1am and, thankfully, Caitlin was asleep for most of the long ride home - our thanks to the bride and groom for a great day. Chris
