Shinobazu Boating

Audrey Hepburn (Tracey) and Jimmy Stewart (Tod) enjoy the drinks.
Some days are performance art, honestly. How else could I leave the house dressed as a water sprite?
The boating party was tiny–Tod, Tracey and me–but lots of fun anyway. Tod rowed us out to the middle of the pond and set us to drift. We popped the cork on a bottle of sprkling wine and noshed on cheese, crackers, fruit and cookies.

Me and Tracey, a study in contrasts.
The best part of the afternoon was watching people on shore and the other boaters watch us. Some waved, some looked away, a few called out to us. Most just smiled. We really did resemble like the painting on the invitation with our parasols and dress up clothes.
