31st Dec 2016 - 1st Jan 2017: New Year's Eve and Hangover

Publisearre: 06.01.2017

We arrived in Perth in the early afternoon and checked into the apartment. And it was a really awesome place. This was definitely the perfect spot for New Year's Eve and recovering from the hangover.

And then the party started. And what can I say? It was a wild night. During the pre-party, we cooked kangaroo steak with noodles in cheese sauce. We also tried the 2012 vintage 'Oranje Tractor' late harvest wine. At that time, things were still relatively civil.

After watching 'Dinner for One' and having a video chat with our silly friends in Lengfurt during the traditional sausage breakfast, the memories slowly started to fade. They only came back around 1 am. At that time, for some inexplicable reason, I took a taxi to a different district, even though the party at the 'Mustang Bar' was just 500 m away from our apartment. Meanwhile, Basti decided to have lunch at an Asian restaurant, which he apparently wanted to buy. Somehow, we both managed to find our way back to the apartment.

The picture on New Year's morning summed up the previous day pretty well. Hello, hangover:

Throughout January 1st, I received Facebook messages from complete strangers who wanted to see the pictures. After checking my phone, we were able to reconstruct the evening based on the snapshots. However, I will only show one of them for privacy reasons. According to Facebook, the person on the left is named Mahmadu and apparently partied with us for a while.

On New Year's Day, we had a few recovery cocktails and grilled the remaining meat before heading north on January 2nd. The weather forecast predicted 42 degrees for the following days.
