This was such a nice gesture from some of Peggy and Rick's friends.........we all walked from the reception across the grass and down to the beach and they lit huge lanterns made of rice paper which we had seen every night floating across the sky on the breeze. We were able to watch it float away on the breeze for such a long time; wishing them good luck and happiness together long in to the future wherever they go.
I should mention here that during the Christmas holidays when G and J were visiting we took them to see the movie Tangled, the story of Rapunzel, and a very important part of Rapunzel's memory of her family from when she was small involved a sky full of 'lanterns', and G was able to understand completely having seen them in Phuket floating across the sky. It's not something we experience here in Oz because of our likelihood of bush fire!
