Tongues of fire--Pentecost |
We went to Courts Garden at around 12:30, and decided we should eat lunch first. We went to the cafe there, which was highly recommended. The cakes on display looked amazing, so we used our "Lincoln stratagem"--order a sandwich to share, and a piece of cake each to share. (We did this at Batty's in Lincoln, and it worked wonderfully, so that we could enjoy lots of cake but actually have something savory as well). We got a piece of chocolate raspberry torte and a strawberry cream cake which was basically Victoria sandwich.
The cakes! |
The bees just loved the gardens, particularly these flowers |

Ken particularly liked the yew houses that had been created in the garden. They did look magical--people would suddenly appear and disappear in and out of the "doors" in the trees.
