Bad pic of the train but at least I have one. We took the
Rocky Mountaineer back from Whistler to Vancouver. A three and one half hour adventure and we had the pleasure of afternoon tea catered by the
The Fairmont Chateau Whistler. It was really deluxe!
We both had a "cocktail" before, ginger ale and apple juice.
A very nice assortment of sandwiches, golden beet, cucumber and watercress, ham & cheese and smoked salmon. I just love afternoon tea anywhere! It was very well done. Then, of course, came the scone, Devon cream and jam.
And I had jasmine tea. They had quite a few choices.
Then came The Herbal Husband's favorite, dessert.
From left to right, a chocolate covered cream puff (The Herbal Husband got mine and I got his lemon tart which was in the middle of this photo and of course, a chocolate covered strawberry.) It was a lovely, lovely tea and the scenery was wonderful as well.
We had great service on that train ride. I called them the Three Mountaineers! They gave us history of the train and region and were frequently pointing out special places and were a great team. Soo if you ever get the chance to go on the train and have tea, do it! Make it an experience! I think I'll join
Bernideen for Afternoon Tea. Still hot and humid in the 'Burgh. Hope you are having a pleasant weekend wherever you may be. Talk to you later.
