Girls Weekend

Tammie and I hiding from Anitra cos we are mature like that.

As part of my mission to turn Birthday Day into Birthday Week and then Birthday Month in early May I went on a girls trip with Anitra and Tammie.

Last years girls trip was to Melbourne and just as much joy (and food and wine) was had this year.

 

This year we went to Brisbane and Niet graciously flew up from the freezer and the weather was perfect.



Winess Protection Program

The apartment was great and close to the city. It was a comedy of errors trying to find it on Friday night but Tammie and her amazing ability to drive AND read her iphone map at the same time got us there. Niet and I were beyond useless with the GPS (fingers way too fat?) and it didn't help that the whole front facade of the apartments were covered in scaffolding!!! 

Friday night we went for a walk and passed a funky hairdressers so I asked them for a restaurant recommendation. They suggested Obar. It was fabulous the food and atmosphere was so luxurious.

Whilst I was asking the hip young and groovy hairdressers where to eat, I booked in for a blow dry the next morning.

Introducing Myke ... with Y

Myke with a Y was a shy and retiring type as you can see.

I told him we were on a girls weekend away for our Birthdays and he suggested I take a snap of him to remember what a great time we had.... and for the record he makes his own clothes.

I love OPI nail colour and have never seen this many colours. Alas I was overcome with choosers remorse and couldn't pick ANY. Idiot I am.

Whilst shopping in David Jones I took a lovely snap of Niet's shoes. She loves those shoes :-)

We rocked the town on Saturday night and I can now cross "clubbing in the Valley" off my Bucket List. I can also cross "looking like somebody's mother in the Valley" off the list.

Sunday night we drove to a really yummy Thai restaurant for tea. It was so good having Tam as tour guide and taxi... she knew all the good spots.

After tea we went up to the Mt Cootha Lookout, where you can see the whole of the city and surrounding suburbs. I took another pic of Anitra's shoes.

It was just us and  a hundred Korean students up at the lookout.

The next day we swung past Tam's office and then all too quickly we were hugging goodbye and I was training it back to the Coast.

I love  these two duds, and I especially like gettimng away with them and look forward to next years adventure!
