Christmas party and Beach run

Okay, not that much text is going to appear on here this time, but I hope the photos will make up for it.

We had a Christmas party at the office last Friday and the theme was Spain, Mexico etc. I was planning to go as the Spanish inquisition (as many were already coming as Zorro, mariachi and alike, and I wanted to pop out a bit outside the box), but I gave up on the idea. It had way too many layers, and it was a bit pricey.

Don't worry, I went for something equally disturbing, at least when it comes to me. In the end I went as [check image below], and I have to thank my friend Anna for the idea and the outfit.

Strangely enough, that thing is unbelievably comfortable! I might keep rocking up around the place like that... ^^

Here's a couple of photos from the office, during the preparations etc.

After recovering all Saturday, we went for a beach run on Sunday. It was a lovely day and a perfect opportunity to go to a beach that is only accessible by 4WD. It's located about 140 km south of Perth and is part of the Yalgorup National Park.

It was quite an adventure! I took my first swim in Australia (the weather has been pretty much crap since I got here; my last swim in the ocean was in India back in 2008), had a bit of a barbie (which is Australian for barbecue), and I've been told I can call myself a true Sandgroper (another name for Western Australians) after doing a 4WD beach run...

Here's a couple of photos...













And then we got back to the city, I took a couple of naps and chilled for the rest of the ever too short weekend...



Tadammm!
