“It’s not much further,” he said. “I don’t mind the walk,” Deirdre returned. “I’m enjoying the scenery.” “Just wait,” he said. “You haven’t seen anything yet.” They rounded the wall of jagged stone and came face to face with one of the most breathtaking sights he’d ever encountered. Theo heard Deirdre’s breath catch. “Oh, my goodness,” she whispered. “Pretty sweet, huh?” Theo grinned. A rushing waterfall flowed into a small lagoon that was sheltered by thick vegetation. The enclosure of smooth gray and brown rocks cropping out of the earth created an intimate, natural cocoon. A pool of turquoise water sparkled with the reflecting sunrays that shone through the copse of trees above. “Theo, this is…it’s gorgeous.” “There’s more,” he said, hoping that everything had been set up to his specifications. They walked along the rocky ledge that surrounded the lagoon, heading toward the backside of the waterfall. As they came upon the flowing veil of water, Theo spotted the table and chairs set up inside the naturally carved cave.
