May

On to May, we started out this month rather interesting. We went to two dress up events within a few days of each other. I say this because it is just not something we do very often and to have done it twice so close together was wonderful. First off we went with a group of friends to our first horse race. It was so exciting. We all dressed up, guys in suits and ties and girls in cocktail dresses and enjoyed a wonderful sunny day at the race course. I was a little disappointed in the lack of big hat wearing, I expected to see a lot of hat but saw only a handful. We watched 5 races and placed a bid on one of them. We placed a 2 pound bid on a horse but didn't win but could have won 160 pounds, oh well. It was a fun experience.

Our other dress up event we went to was a formal dinner at a college in Cambridge. A friend from the squadron goes to school there and every Tuesday night they have a formal 3 course dinner. He invited a group of us to go and enjoy the evening with him. We had a great time and are glad to experience something like this. It was wonderful.

Well this is the last of the catch up blogs. Next time I will try and not get so far behind. As for right now we have only one more big trip planned. We are trying to plan a motorcycle trip through Scotland before we leave. Can't wait to see all of you again soon. Hope everyone is doing well and would love to hear from you.
Love,
Sara and Owen
