More Broome Adventures

Our Group Activity on Thursday night (which was a secret, but I think we all guessed) was a sunset camel ride along Cable Beach. I was a little apprehensive - last time I was on a horse, it felt very high, and camels are bigger than horses! But it turned out to be lots of fun, and very relaxing, once you get past the camel-standing-up bit! Here's Dave and I on our camel, Raja:

Raja turned out to have quite the personalty. He was the oldest camel of the group, at the ripe old age of 27. It was magical watching the sun going down over the Indian Ocean.
 

Look at the gorgeous colours...it was just breath-taking. The camera really doesn't do it justice:
 

Afterwards, I gave Raja a carrot, and he posed for the camera. Who has the best camera smile???


After that it was time to head to the Hospitality Suite for "Swaps and Snacks". This is how Stampin' up! does 'snacks':
So much yummy food! Antipasto, breads, dips and cheeses, as well as fruit kebabs profiteroles and brownies. The idea was that you could have some pre-dinner nibbles, or dessert, or both, and we swapped in the middle! Here we are, waiting in the Swap Line (holding our new Swap Bags!):


I received some absolutely amazing swaps. I'll be showing them off at my classes next month. I'll also take a pic of my swap when I get home, and post it on here.
The Hospitality Suite is also where we spin the wheel each day and win a prize. Here I am, being the Wheel of Fortune prize girl (there's a sneak peak of new DSP on the wheel, but you'll have to look really closely!):

Even though we didn't actually need more food, a group of us went for some Thai for dinner. We just got a few dishes and shared them. Yummo.
It's always exciting going back to our room at the end of the day, to see if the Stampin' Up! gift fairies have been... And they had!!


 This one had a tag saying "Enjoy". And inside was....


A gorgeous bag to match our travel wallets. We are so spoiled!
