High Tea


Today we are in Colorado Springs. We are at the home of the Navigators, Glen Eyrie. We had 'High Tea' at 11:30 in the castle. Oh my. Did I tell you our husbands actually agreed to this? Though they weren't the only guys, they were definitely in the miniority. They were good sports about it all, though. They drank tea, ate quiche and beef wellington, and a spinach roll. They were pretty little and the guys both thought it was short on substance. I think one of them commented about needing to stop at a fast food place later on. But of course Lynn and I were enchanted by the whole place. We 'teaed' in the music room, then checked out the rest of the castle which was just as one would expect: full of nooks and crannies and beams and fireplaces and armor and paintings and servants. We are here overnight though we aren't staying in the castle. More later!

your guys are good sports and have learned about a different culture. What fun. I did a castle in Germany once and it was great - even stayed overnight.
