The Lady in Waiting

While on holiday in London I just had to treat myself to high tea at the Orangery in Kensington Palace.
During her reign (1702-1714), Queen Anne spent considerable time at Kensington Palace for recreation purposes and in the first few years of her reign she spent about £26,000 on improving the gardens.  A number of garden buildings were constructed the main one being the Orangery. This building was supposed to serve as greenhouse but it's interior decoration reflects the Orangery’s other uses as a ‘summer supper house’ and a place for entertainment.

While Pauline (my travel buddy) and I sat having our high tea I became aware of a lady making her way around the tables and looking at what everyone was eating and drinking. The lady was quite short and slender with dark hair and wore a lovely white crinoline skirt that she held in both hands and swooshed about as she moved. This lady was very happy to be surrounded by people especially people enjoying themselves.

I sensed this friendly spirit a lot of time under a particular arch and enclosed is the photo that Pauline took of this arch. What do you think about the circle at the bottom of this photo? Do you think Anne is still there?
