It's time for Vee's notecard party, which means that another month has flown by.
But it appears that I haven't read well, and Vee's cardshop is closed for the summer.
So we'll just call these framed photos rather than "notecards," on a tea theme.
And it looks like I've had some milk and sugar in my tea.

I'm thinking back to a trip to the Kenya highlands and a walk among the tea fields.
Tea as far as the eye can see.

After an inspiring walk, it's time for a cup of locally grown tea.
Let's have a seat and a cuppa. The weather here in the highlands is
pleasant so a hot drink is welcoming even on a warm afternoon.

What a beautiful tea room with a gorgeous view! I'd very much enjoy having tea there.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the mention. My apologies for the confusion. ( I have falsely assumed that Note Card Buttons are linked to the Note Card Information page.)
Well, even though there is no party, your photos are great. I love the shiny wood floors and the wooden tables.
ReplyDeleteFor a minute there I thought I'd missed the party! :) The tea fields are beautiful. It is said that a hot drink on a hot day also cools the body. I'm enjoying an Earl Grey right now. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that I've ever seen a photo of a tea field. Your pictures are fascinating. I love the idea of weather that is pleasant enough to make a cup of afternoon tea inviting. (I'm afraid that the humidity is rolling in here, so that has particular appeal.) :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed seeing your "framed photos" and a new look at another corner of the world.
Lovely curving lines in that tea field following the lay of the line. An excellent post. The tea room looks airy and bright.
ReplyDeleteThe Kenyan tea fields are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure like anything else, fresh from the field must taste better than a product processed and sitting in a store for who knows how long.
ReplyDeleteI'll meet you at that restaurant with the great round tables! Looks like my kind of place.
ReplyDeleteI've never thought of tea as coming from Africa. I wonder how tea leaves are dried there. Do they hang it like tobacco leaves are? Or laid out on a screen? Or is there a more proactive process for drying?
ReplyDeleteGreetings. I am so very late to visit, and so I have been catching up with your most recent posts. What lovely photography! Such a big storm! And a wonderful story of a boy who was taught the gift of giving!
ReplyDeleteI always love my visits here.

I love the pictures of Brackenhurst. What a beautiful location that is!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are real nice and locally grown tea in the tea room must have been nice. Blessings, Catherine
ReplyDeleteI envy you your visit to this tea plantation! How lovely!
ReplyDeleteI hope to go to the one outside of Charleston SC one day!

I love the green teacup and seeing the tea fields and tea room.
ReplyDeleteSpring has been a busy time here between travel, yard work, and babysitting. I hope the lazy days of summer will afford me more computer time!
I love these pictures, Dotsie! You have traveled so extensively; what interesting experiences for you! I'll miss Vee's notecard parties this summer, but things are awfully busy around here. I look forward to them returning in the fall!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Denise
