Tumbling down the rabbit hole - Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea

I was in Wonderland! 
For a special birthday we spent an afternoon in Sanderson Hotel for their famous "Alice in the Wonderland" themed afternoon tea. I can promise you it is nothing like any ordinary afternoon tea you have been to! From entering the room to stepping out the door were full of funky fiddly bits!The experience was truly interesting and full of fun!
