River Festival

Fi and I were lucky enough to be a part of the Samba-Soul dance parade at the Bello River festival.  It was hot, sweaty, feathery fun.  The drumming was fantastic and all the women beautiful.  It combined four of my favourite things - dancing, making new friends, getting dressed up (green feathers, tulle and fishnets) and music.  Yippee.  (I felt a bit tired, sore and dishevelled on Sunday though)

You can see some amazing photos of the day and parade over here...

(I forgot my camera so have no photos of my own)

This next clip is of Didjital  (Big O is on the drums).  You can see us sitting in the audience (me, sunny, granny, Liz, Freya, Jen...)

Old Mill Road

This amazing long table is the big dinner Kirsti and Fraser had at their property Old Mill Road.  I think 100 people were fed .  It sounded amazing - I better go to the next one!  They grew or procured locally everything that was ingested.    They also have a cool web site -have a look.  I wish they didn't live so far away! I miss you Kirsti!
