My friend Nicole and I attended a big, lavish, over-the-top Ball, sponsored by the Australia/New Zealand Association. The theme of the Ball was Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. The Auzzies here seem to love that movie. You've seen the movie, right? All about drag queens on a bus trip through Australia. And so, at the Ball, everyone was dressed up in crazy, outrageous outfits. Attached are some pics of people at the party, including me, who according to my husband, was virtually unrecognizable.

| What do you think, am I effectively channeling drag queen, or is it more Morticia Adams, or perhaps Elvira? |
 |
| Nicole and I getting ready for our Priscilla night out! |
 |
| The venue . . . Shangra-La Hotel Ballroom. |
 |
| Priscilla - The Master of Ceremonies . . . or Mistress, which is it? |
 |
| These are the hunks who brought Priscilla into the hall and up onto the stage. |
 |
| Lovely Ladies! |
 |
| Three men in this photo . . . can you tell which? |
 |
| This woman made her Chinese-Empress inspired costume out of old CDs |
 |
| The beer and the beard really add to the look, huh? |
 |
These women definitely had the Priscilla head dress thing down pat! Either that, or they're going to the
Mummers Parade in Philadelphia, PA. :-) |
 |
I went costume shopping with a few of these woman and was there when the woman in pink bought her
cone-head of hair.
A great Priscilla look, eh? |
 |
| Now THAT'S a shoe! |
 |
The head of flowers and equally-adorned shoes are
spot-on Priscilla! |
 |
| Nicole and new friend Myrna |
 |
| Colorful locks! |
 |
| Friend Leah channelling Phillys Diller. |
 |
| Oh, what a night! |
