Woke up still slightly hungover from the late night at the New Year's Party on the 2nd of January and had to slip out of Mei-Li's arms to get up, as she had passed out on top of me. She really is a firecracker, even though she gets drunk very quickly, because of her Asian physiology and then starts flirting with anyone. But we know her and keep her out of trouble.
Walked in on Brianna and Shimbavi humping each other's thighs in the lounge this morning, it was a bit of a surpris, but not unexpected, as both of them have bisexual leanings. I did hope that they didn't leave any stains on the couch, as it was practically brand new. Had to chuckle with all of the moans and gasps from the lounge, as they went at it. Found out later, that the both of them had smoked Shimbavi's weed sometime after midnight and had been making passes at each other all night. After making coffee, I came back and threw a blanket over the two of them after they had passed out in a tangle of naked flesh.
At around eleven, Torquay and Brianna started making breakfast, while I took a shower with Mei-Li and the others banged on the door whenever we giggled too loudly, while soaping each other up. Torquay banged on the bathroom door, five minutes later to say that breakfast was served and that she really needed to use the toilet urgently.
After everyone had eaten and showered, we squeezed into my new BMW M6 and headed through to the CBD to see what the Minstrel Carnival was like and we were surprised by the number of people lining the streets around the Parade, as we had to park down at the ICCC on the Foreshore and walk back.
Wow! Were we surprised by the organisation of the minstrel parade, as the uniforms were amazing and very well designed. There were hawkers and vendors at every corner, but everyone was well behaved. I had to laugh, as the ladies with me shouted and cheered along with the music and singing of the minstrels, as they danced passed. We even had a laugh at some of the crazy clown performers, whose costumes poked fun at political figures.
There were thousands of people watching the carnival and I am very pleased that the turnout was so large, as well as that the people were all able to celebrate together in harmony. Which was a result of the South African Police's presence and organisation skills, perfected during the 2010 Soccer World Cup.
Shimbavi and Brianna bought a bunch of samoosas (Cape Malay delicacy), handing them out to the rest of us, which was really nice, though they could have warned us about the samoosas being chillied... We must have spent hours there, even in the harsh noon day sun, but didn't notice it, because of all the fun and only got home sometime around 4pm.
The only complaint that the ladies had was that there were far to little toilet facilities provided by the event organiser, which is a standard complaint by a lot of women in general about public events. And i can understand, as it can be uncomfortable for a woman to enjoy any event when they have long (up to 30min lines) to wait for toilets.
