Melbourne Cup!

Melbourne's Flemington race track is a mere 5 minute walk from our house, so we could not pass up attending the 150th anniversary of the Melbourne Cup, "the race that stops the nation", as well as a public holiday in the state of Victoria. Duncs' friend Garry came down from Sydney to attend.
We started off the day with an American mint julep!
In the backyard--I was pretty happy with my newly acquired fascinator.







Crazy day of weather-we were drenched and sunburned.
