“Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the mind of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away
Ba de ya, say do you remember
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day…”
-- September by Earth, Wind and Fire
it was one beautiful September day in the Mons Calpe Suite high up the Rock that we stood as witnesses to new friends’ K and L’s wedding. it was just so romantic! you see, they just came to Gibraltar to get married!
they exchanged their vows under the hot summer sun with a panoramic view of the Rock, Spain and Africa and a handful of tourists who clapped their hands after the minister said, “i now pronounce you, man and wife. you may
kiss the bride…”
a few weeks later, we received an unexpected gift from them (yes, that’s how sweet and kind and thoughtful they are!)
the mister and i just love these bon-bons :) i am quite sure there is a hint of ginger in the yellow ones and heat-packing cherries in the red ones! VERY unexpected flavors bursting in your mouth AND very addictive too!
take your pick!

inside was an authentic Oktoberfest beer mug and a jar of the most interesting bon-bons we’ve ever had. also written on a postcard is an invitation to visit them in Hamburg!
take your pick!
