Last Friday we had 28 degrees and Sunshine and then the day after on Saturday it was down to 17 degrees and stormy rain and floods!
On Friday we had our friends Caetlyn 20th Birthday at..hmm guess where we went again??? The Perseverance! haha.
Since we're planning on going overseas next year we have to think of many ways on how to cut down on spendings.
1.Buy 'travellers' if you're heading out where drinks can get pricey.
:p
With the birthday girl in the car on our way there.
yup..another shot in the toilets haha.
The group for the night, everyone enjoying themselves :)
you can't tell but i had 2seconds to run from the bar and back to them thanks to my timer to take the picture hehe.
definitely a bunch of good looking peeps right there :P
Love these last two pictures the most, wish i could have stolen the photographers cameras look at how cool they look!
After Caetlyns Birthday we got home in time to have enough sleep before we had to get ready for Derby Day
(One of the Melbournian Spring Racing Days where the traditional dress code is Black & White)
Last year when Connie and myself went for the first time it was amazing weather but it got too hot at one stage. This year it was the extreme opposite!It was bucketing down till the streets flooded, it was a very amazing day haha.
Ready to go to the Races :]
Connie having a little lunch break under our mofo umbrella haha.
One of the many races of the day.
Squeezing together under the umbrella but someone just kept getting wet, especially when the wind joined the rain...that was just great...
We had to go inside away from the horrible weather, but it wasn't that much better there.
It was all wet,slippery and crowded because everyone else was hiding from the rain there too.
So we finally left about 20minutes before the main race haha,oh well...we didn't get to place bets anyway.
Poor Caetlyn walking under the rain from the Flemington Race Course....let's hope next year will be better compared to the last two years.
Here we are waiting for our lift under our big umbrella totally soaked!
...But that didn't stop us from having our own fun.
When we got home we laid on the couch and watched TV firstly because we were wrecked!
Then sometime later Connie and me fell asleep while leaving Caetlyn alone to watch a movie lol. All that running around in the rain in heels really got to us, once we woke up we played some games on the Wii which was pretty funny!
We had some dinner and called it a night.We really ended up having way more fun when we got home then at the races. I mean it was a great experience to get all dressed up and go to such a old traditional event, but when you can't do much because everything is flooded...then that ain't fun lol.
That's all for today from me :)
