Welcome to...
benchen71's Metas on a Tuesday (MOAT)
Can you storm the castle by getting across the MOAT? It's tea time! So get out your beverage of choice, enjoy a cookie (or biscuit, as we Aussies call them), and dig into this meta. You might find a few references to tea as you solve the grid. In particular, I mention a fascinating map. Here's
a link, so you don't have to google for it!
PM me with your submissions or submit on Crosshare. Either way, I'll compile a list of those who successfully solve the meta.

Sorry! The answer to the meta is a noun.

Saw something like this on a walk on the beach this AM in Carlsbad CA and was reminded that it was Tuesday!
Kids helped me solve this afternoon.

Moat crossed and enjoying my coffee this morning in the castle (sorry, as Ted Lasso would say, no tea for me)! Thanks Ben.
