Waiting for the shennanigans to begin... OmMahani, Simona and Tabitha
Tabitha setting the scene...
After a 'dryish' Xmas four of us decided to go to a New Years Eve party in Beiruit.. only for the weekend BUT what a weekend.
Simona, Tabith, Kat and myself made the most of the short time we had - although I can confess to canning out about 2am and leaving them to party till dawn!
Of course we were ill prepared for the exchange rate - taking out 200 Lebanese which was about 10 pounds UK. I manged to get 1million - it's true - a whole million (see receipt below) from my BNZ Visa account to pay for the accommodtion.. and party we did....
