Part Four – The Wedding.
The day of the wedding was a complexed day for us with a number of functions we had to attend. First, there was an early breakfast at the restaurant in the Game Reserve. This was a private function before the park opened to the public.
A beautiful location on a deck overlooking a large lake, it was very early as we wanted to catch the sunrise over the lake; the water was still, hardly a ripple. We watched birds diving over the water, catching small insects that had come in to drink. Hansini pointed out one of the small cabins on the far side which was where the couple would spend their first married night together.
Of course, David was the guest of honour at this breakfast as it was his big day. His family and all of us from the Letters group were there. There were also a few others from India I didn’t know. Katrina’s father was there too since he couldn’t be with his daughter for her special breakfast on the train.
