Wedding adventures – part 3

In case the previous day was not enough of a party, the wedding festivities continued on Sunday also.

We were up early again, and headed down to breakfast with most of the wedding guests who had stayed at the resort overnight.

Still feeling quite full from the previous evening, I opted for a lighter breakfast of yoghurt, apple and banana, with a big glass of orange juice on the side.

It was then time to take advantage of the resort's mini golf course - as my young second cousins challenged me to a match.

Not one to shy away from a challenge, I of course said yes!

18 holes later, we declared the game a draw - and I must say that my mini golf skills leave a lot to be desired.

Desperately in need of some post-match caffeine, Mr BBB and I then headed into Tathra to do a little exploring and to satisfy my caffeine craving.

A pot of tea, served beachside, was the perfect cure!

Caffeine-crisis sorted, Mr BBB and I made the most of the remainder of the morning exploring the local area, before heading back to the resort for lunch.

Again, there was a fantastic spread - with lots of salads and meat.

(plus some sausages!)

I also made sure to save room for dessert as I knew my Aunty's pavlova was on offer.

Oh my goodness. Meringue, fruit and cream = what a winning combination!

This plate of sugar-heaven  well and truly put me into a "food coma".

Unfortunately we did not have time to linger for very long after lunch, and with the day slowly getting away from us, we packed up the car and headed back to Canberra.

2.5 hours later we arrived home, weary but having had a great weekend away. Back to reality tomorrow!

Happy Baking :)
