Agent X on the right had infiltrated the enemy embassy. Using her encryption tools she unlocked the vault and recovered the evidence of the enemy nuclear armament program. Unfortunately the improved cipher required more computing power than anticipated, and the documents could not be transmitted in time for the world summit. She needed to acquire the faster transmittal channel which had not yet been miniaturized for her toolkit. So she summoned for Agent Y.
Agent Y had been awaiting orders to terminate a spy while waiting in the plaza cafe when he received the help summons from Agent X. He immediately hopped in his sports car and raced to the embassy when he realized he had been tailed. A few carefully placed glycerin bombs on a winding mountain road forced his pursuants off the edge to their death. After deceiving embassy guard with his fluent command of the language, he rendezvoused with Agent X, and together they transmitted the secret documents to the world leaders and thus exposed the enemy government's deceitful lies.
Then Agents X and Y sipped champagne and played Carcassonne on the hood of the car.

The picture is taken the 5th of july this summer when me and my wife got married. I wanted to have a wedding picture that showed my interest in board games and since Carcassonne is one of my all time high it was a natural choice. Unfortunately did we never finish the game, the church was calling, so the capture is maybe not whole truth.

That's sweet.
Congratulations to you both, many happy years of love and gaming!

Nice picure and congratulations to you and your wife. Clearly two people in love.
You're holding a crossroad to two cities and she is holding a straight road.
I find the crossroad and the straight road rather symbolic.
(crossroad right before the wedding and the straight road ahead the future)

I predict an increase in Carcassonne sales.
"Play Carcassonne, get the girl, and live happily ever after."

"A Farewell to Carcassonne"
"Dear, sweet Carcassonne. We've had some good times, haven't we? Well, I'm sorry to say that I've found someone new, so this is the last time I can see you. I hope you can understand and that you know that I'll always cherish the memory of our time together. Farewell, and may life bring you nothing but the best."
"Are you finished yet? Throw that thing in the trash and get your @ in the church already! Oh, will you please stop crying!"
As far as always having time for Carcassonne, I hope that wasn't the case during your honeymoon.
Seriously, though, congrats and best of luck!

Very cool picture. I am sad me and my wife didn't think about a gaming wedding picture, I think we covered all the other geeky hobby interests but that(I wouldn't trade it for the picture of us entering the reception hall under crossed lightsabres). Of course to be accurate it would have had to be a picture of me crying as she beat me in yet another game of Warmachine.
