Water Lilies.......tasteee

A truly fantastic scene is the lake of water lilies not far from the school building site. I sneaked away from work at 7.30 this morning to catch them before the hot sun closed their petals. They come in blue and white but the most spectacular are these pink ones.
They are edible and Saorla and I munched our way through one yesterday.......very tasteee!

A Pink Snack for Mr. Alexander and Saorla!
