SEPTEMBER 2013
Larry’s Newsletter
The Day Before.... Sunday September 1st was the day before Darren and Michelle’s wedding, so we all continued to enjoy the sun, pool and harbour, and chilling out before the Big Day. Isobel and Morgan gave Michelle and Darren a present.
The Big Day Arrives...... So after many months of waiting the Big Day finally arrives. Monday 2nd September and it’s time to get ready. Michelle, Isobel, Morgan, Georgia and Michelle’s Mom head off to the hairdressers to have their hair done, and then to get dressed. They all looked beautiful!!
...it’s time to get ready
And so to Gibralter.... And so we all headed to Gibralter, and after an exhausting walk reached the cable car, and the ascent to the top of The Rock. There we witnessed the short but sweet ceremony, and Darren and Michelle were husband and wife.

T ime for P ortr ai ts .... It was time to move up to the Viewing Platform to take the Wedding Portraits. A first for Larry, Wedding photographer and Best Man, and of course being in Gibralter we were joined by the apes who were keen to get involved whenever the opportunity arrives.
....and Monkeying around
Time for the Reception... On leaving Gibralter we all headed for La Duquessa Port for the reception at Bar Heaven. We all had a great time as we relaxed together, with drinks, food, speeches and dancing.

Last Day in Estepona... So the day after the Wedding we made the most of our last day in Estepona before flying home to England. Darren spent some time with us before he and Michelle left for their honeymoon, and we visited the harbour and beach for the last time.
