Wednesday the 8th of June started off as any other Wednesday. Except that both me and Marcus had the day off work and decided to go for a picnic to the Royal Botanical Gardens. It was a gorgeous day with sunshine and blue sky so we decided to stop at the Opera house on our way to the park.

Marcus had organized the picnic food and some yummy sparkling wine. We chose a nice spot in the sun with harbour views for our picnic blanket. From where we were sitting we could see the bats (or flying foxes) hanging from the trees sleeping. (They are about the size of cats..!)

We had a lovely afternoon with cheese & crackers, drinks, battleship!, sunshine and chillaxing.The highlight off course was when Marcus popped the question!:) He gave me a Georg Jensen white gold Fusion ring - love at first sight! :):)  It looks like the ring below except it doesn't have the middle part. My fingers are quite short and the ring would have looked too big with 3 parts so Marcus decided on getting the outer parts only as they fit together like a puzzle. The good thing with this ring is that pieces can be added on and diamonds implanted later on to build on the ring. Some diamonds when we get married perhaps!? ;)

We decided to stay out for dinner and drinks to celebrate the engagement. We walked back towards the Rocks and stopped at the Opera house for a touristic picture..

We were both over the moon and still are! I'm so happy!! :)
