Description High Tea along the river Vecht

Breukelen, the Netherlands

These separate small buildings (pavillions ) in the gardens of large land houses along the Vecht, were used to have tea, while enjoying the beautiful view and see the boats go by. This is a high one... probably for 'high tea' ?

My friend made a marvellous photo of this same spot in summer time ... what a different mood and atmosphere, and how beautiful too! You can see it here: "Having a cup of tea on a summer morning" by jcanders on redbubble

Nice shot, and it makes me want to have one.... I might even start liking tea to enjoy it.

Indeed a lovely scene also in winter, though it might have been a bit too cold for having tea. And hardly any boats would have come along, I suppose. After all the rich country-house owners stayed in town during winter.

Indeed , it was biting cold, and I wonder whether there is any heating up there - I added the link to your work on RB of this same spot in this works' description, Juergen. Hope that is OK? Have you uploaded it here at dA too? (in that case, I could add a thumb, if you like )

I suppose there is no heating up there. So it's only for the really tough ones, but probably no one will be around anyway, I guess.
Many thanks for the referrence. The picture of mine is only on RB. I try to keep both galleries apart, but sometimes when a shot is especially popular, I share it on both.
