Tonight there was a party,

it is an annual thing.

It is always in June, and never in the same place.

This year it was on the beach.

 

 

 

 

The decoration.

The flower vase was a pineapple.

The amazing view.

I managed to take a few snaps before the crowd gathered.

Later in the evening there was a show.

The dancers wore straw skirts and had coconut shells for their tops.

How they stayed on by the tiny string was a feat in itself.

 

 

 

A lovely party. 

My feet hurt from dancing.

The best moment:

For dessert they had sorbet popsicle. French Husband and I took one, then grabbed one of the massive bean bags, walked out to the beach, then laid it down, cuddled up and ate the popsicle.

Last days of Spring.

    Sounds like paradise, looks like paradise.

  3. Now that would be a party I would love. Especially the popsicle, bean bag chair, and on the beach.

  4. What was the event? Who held it? 1300 people is a serious party. Looks like fun!

  5. Looks like a great party, my favourite kind and the ending sounds perfect, one of my favourite places to be, on the beach at night, it’s nearly always quite magical.

    Well, our leaves have finally totally leafed out! You are so far ahead of us here at the base of the Rockies! And, oh, by the way…you two are so romantic and I am so envious! Popsicles in a bean bag on the beach!

    I recognized it, from the pictures, before I read the article. 🙂

    I think I remember your photo coverage of a large elegant event akin to this (exactly this?) quite a few years ago.
