special sarah delivery

13/2/15

Today wasn't overly exciting at all. We had to sort some preparations for our Valentine's Tea Party the next day which included making the Australian wonder that is fairy bread!

  

  

We got a very special delivery in the afternoon. Sarah came back! 6 weeks after breaking 4 bones and spending time back in Miami recovering, she's finally well enough to come and help us out for the last few weeks we're here. It's great she's back although a shame that she's missed out on the slightly calmer weeks without many guests that the rest of us have enjoyed since she left.

In the evening a few of us decided to head out to one of the bars in town that we had read about in the previous vollies scrapbook pages. Berner Bar had a big reputation to live up to after all the nights out that had apparently been had there. Rachael considered wearing the koala purse I gave her for Christmas but then decided better of it. We played 'circle of death' (or ring of fire as it's known in the UK) and tried to keep track of the rules even though we all know different rules at home. Rachael had made everyone some jelly shots which ended up being stronger that expected but that didn't stop us finishing them off before heading out.

 

This is the famous Berner Bar which turned out to be pretty empty when we got there at 10.30 so we headed to the Alpen Rose bar for a few rounds of pool. The bar was suspiciously full of teenagers but since we weren't IDed anywhere then I guess they weren't either. The night ended up being quite a long one full of Rachael's enthusiastic dance moves and maybe a few drinks too many for the others (me not so much this time).

Thank you to Rachael for her input on this post... It was muchly appreciated!!
