We timed our return to Aleta for a wedding stopover in the UK. Clearing customs in record time, we soon hopped in the world’s smallest rental car (a Toyota AYGO. So named because drivers constantly mutter, Ay Go! Ay yi yi, just Go!) and tootled down to the ancient city of Bath just in time to walk Emma down the aisle so she could tie the knot with her fiancé Jarno. The beautiful, simple ceremony took place in the Guildhall and took care of the UK’s civil demands for legally uniting a couple in matrimony.
A small, select group of family VIPs attended to ensure things went smoothly. After all, this was April Fool’s Day. Not everyone made it, but a near tragedy was avoided. Next year a larger, wilder celebration is planned for a secret location in the French Alps. (Really, Blofeld? You intrigue me.) We can’t wait!
As I write, the happy bride and groom just boarded a Singapore Airlines double-decker jet bound, eventually, for a honeymoon diving in Thailand. Not bad. Once the wedding photographer finishes his work, we will publish a full report. In the meantime, here are a few pics to whet your appetite.
