Roadtrip

Emu's on the run!
Dress- Zara (similar HERE)

Last weekend hubby and I departed Melbourne and headed bush into outback NSW to visit one of my very dear girlfriends and her hubby on their farm.  And I'm not talking a hobby farm here either, it's huuuge! After 6 hours of driving, and with a bit more to go, we stopped and took my pics in the very middle of the highway without another car in sight.

We had such an awesome weekend away filled with good fun and great food!! I even tried water skiing for the first time which is THE BEST- check out some crazy faces and epic crashes on my Facebook page.

Now you might say I'm a bit dressed up for a road tip but seriously this maxi dress was the perfect thing to wear, so comfy just like a giant mu mu!!


 
p.s.  Please excuse my rather crinkled dress, that's what you get for sitting in a car for so long ; )
