High Tea or a Picnic?

This view is of the outdoor dining area of the Topiary Cafe at Newman's Nursery in Tea Tree Gully - a delightful venue for a beautifully decorated and delectable High Tea: just perfect for that special occasion at any time of the year.  (They also have an indoor dining area where your eyes can feast upon wonderful displays of delicate china, napery, wall tapestries and the unusual).  And what the passionate owners and staff don't know about any form of gardening, would fit on a postage stamp!  A visit is highly recommended.

By contrast, here we have a family enjoying a picnic lunch on the banks of the River Torrens in Adelaide's CBD, adjacent to the University of Adelaide grounds, with the ducks, swans, pigeons and seagulls all wanting a piece of the action!

High tea and picnics are both wonderful - I want a life that makes room for both!
