April 1 saw us all gathering for Murray and Showte’s wedding at Albert River Winery at Mount Tamborine.
Albert River Wines vineyard and winery are set high on the hill, with panoramic views to Tamborine Mountain and the surrounding Hinterland.
Amongst this setting, you will find the historic colonial homestead, Tamborine House and the fully restored, beautiful iconic Queenslander, Auchenflower House.
Albert River Winery is also home to the original Kingaroy Lutheran Chapel, which is just perfect for traditional style Wedding Ceremonies. This is where Murray and Showte had their wedding ceremony.
I left my camera behind in the caravan in Perth, so tried to make do with our little canon. Unfortunately it died shortly after the ceremony so no reception photos until we see the photographers shots.
Murray and Showte are now honeymooning in Italy for two months. Lucky them !!! I loved the email we just got from them in Paris. See below……..
Hello,
Greetings from Paris.
We arrived here safely after a very long couple of days… quite sleepy. Woke up at 5am this morning due to jet lag and quickly found out that nothing opens in Paris until 9am. But none the less we off to explore Paris today and will possibly get to the Eiffel tower and champ de Ulysses and also the arc de triumph. Which is pretty exciting!
Hope all is well
Lots of love
Showte and Murray

I knew I would be hearing from you soon when you popped into my head yesterday..was wondering what you were up to. Cannot believe you left your camera in the van you must feel like one of your best friends is missing 🙂
Congrats to the lovely newlyweds…now that takes us back a few years eh! I’ll have to try and post one of ours for a laugh. I think Neils hair was even longer than your sons.
Looking forward to the next instalment.
Safe travels.
Jean and Neil xx

Hi Murray and Showte,
Sorry I am so slow in answering you. We have been so busy house hunting, I hadn’t got around to checking the blog. Pleased to hear you have loved Italy so much over the past few weeks. Look forward to all the photos !!! xx Ros
