CAPTIONS BY MOTHER (from a year ago. ;))
Never have I cooked in such a Panoramic setting quite like this! It took the work right out of preparing supper! I have no walls or window pane between me and the children exploring the shallow lake bed before me.
I thought we'd do the dishes chuck wagon style and Derek faithfully voluntered..
The reward you keep presenting to yourself on the tedious hike is that special famous little Tea House at the very end of this steep climb. Kind of a "Heidi" type chalet where the staff and food gets dropped by helicopter once a week.
We know they are to hunt for their own food,but face it, when they are this tame by all the picnickers,they have chosen fast food over foraging.Kyle and this one were communicating.
So,the people that gave up their "tree stump seats" for our tired,hungry seven,offered us their leftover pot of tea and we tried to not agree too eagerly:). So we studied the menu and figured we could divey up two pots of tea and one tiny plate of cookies and crumpets with our cash.Thankfully I had packed the grapes you see,water and snacks which was all gone in hurry.It was good experience to break little cookies in half and share sips from one cup of tea, relish in the rest and refreshment of the view from the mountain top!
