Today was Memorial Day and so America had a long weekend which meant so did I, horray!! Friday night I packed my bags to go to Alissa's and didn't get home until a few hours ago (its now Monday night). We were suppose to stay the weekend in the Hamptons however our free accomodation/party thrower fell thru so we decided just to go in on the Saturday for the day. Alissa, Alice, Frannie and I woke up at 5am (I forgot there was a 5am) to take the 2ish hour trip to the Hamptons. Unfortunately the weather was awful - slightly chilly but ridiculously windy with chances of rain. We got to the beach and had planned on spending all day in the surf sand and sun but instead only spent a very windswept hour walking along the sand. I'm not just saying this because I'm Aussie, but our beaches back home are so much more beautiful and easily accessable. We were lucky we went in May because as of June you can only park in the Hamptons if you have a very expensive summer long parking pass - the people and area are very snobby and exclusive. The beach itself was virtually secluded and had a very different feel from an Australian beach - more somewhere to walk, read, relax as opposed to have fun, play sport, sun bathe and hang out like on the GC. It was definitly a lovely experience though to see what everyone always raves about! We went through a quick walk and bite for eat in a small Hampton town, before heading back home.
We then picked up Sarah and Steph and all had dinner at the delicious CheeseCake factory! Sunday and Monday were fun, lazy, save money, shopping, movies, chatting days but always lots of fun when I'm with my New York girls!!
