Tea and roses

On Sunday afternoons in summer, various charity groups take turns to serve cake and tea at the Durbanville Rose Garden, to raise funds for their organisations. Paul had lemon meringue and coffee, and I chose baked cheesecake and tea; we then took a leisurely stroll around the garden to admire the abundance of colourful and wonderfully-scented roses growing there. The Garden was established in 1979 and boasts around 4,500 rose bushes!
