Movin' On - summer wedding

The summer wedding - out in the country - the wonderful easy feeling of a Saturday afternoon with friends and family bound together in this ritual of love.
The flower girl empties her basket of rose petals with a squeal of delight just as the bride and groom start their vows. Their baby boy in a miniature tuxedo is upside down trying to reach the daisy decoration on the wheel of his wagon. We're sure he will fall out and start wailing just as his Mom and Dad start the "I do"'s.
Cameras everywhere, but nothing bothers this man and woman as they proudly proclaim their promise to "honor each other" forever. We smile, and squeeze the hand of the loved one next to us.
The giggles and hugs, handshakes and toasts continue till sundown.
The next day we meet again with stories of the day before. We've left the stillness of the country and join in the din of city life.
Off in the distance the dragon boats slice the water, the bicycles spin their wheels, and the dogs seem attached to invisible leashes - who would believe there are so many different kinds of dogs!
We meet for lunch outdoors the next day on the wharf. The warm sunshine has made everyone a bit giddy, and the lunch crowd is noisy and talkative.
We are lucky. We are a lucky country to be able to live this way in security, and freedom against this stunning background of the mountains and the sea.
We're sorry to see it end with all the goodbyes "until the next time". Such great family. Such great friends.
Next day we leave the city again and head back to quieter roads and highways, back to our search for "home".
