Saturday – Halloween!

This morning Ben artfully carved a pumpkin, whilst Nicola helped decorate Claire’s apartment (and played with the cats).

We then went for a walk, to grab a late lunch and some appropriate fancy dress costumes for the Halloween party that Claire was throwing tonight.

When we got back to the apartment we headed up to the roof terrace to admire the glowing sunset and great views Downtown.

We had a party to prepare for though, and a costume to get into!  So, back downstairs we got ready…Ben getting into his Barrack Obama disguise (Obama is from Hawaii, hence the ‘Aloha’ gear), and Nicola into her Greek Goddess dress.

Claire had opted for a 50s waitress outfit, with accompanying props.

When the other guests arrived we congregated in the corner with Rob and Vicky (who had adopted intrepid explorer outfits) and Matt (who had achieved the New York City cop look).

The ‘activities’ soon started and a couple of brave souls took part in apple bobbing (with a difference) and donut grabbing.

We then circulated to the kitchen, where we ‘hung out’ until closing time!
