4th of July costumed pub crawl

July 20th, 2009

So, a bunch of us decided it would be fun to dress up in costumes and go out for a night on the town.  Originally we were going to try to be Wizard of Oz characters, with your’s truly as Dorothy, but we decided it might be difficult to get costumes together.  Billy found a costume shop in Bandung that rented costumes, and we all went a bit crazy with getting dressed up.  It was a great time, and just happened to fall on the 4th of July.  What better way to celebrate American Independence than by dressing up in strange costumes and going around to the local bars?

There were 7 of us.  I was a fairy, Billy was some kind of Athletic Freak with a huge green afro, sweat bands and gigantic sunglasses, Russell was a Roman, Melanie was some kind of Willy Wonka-type character with a huge candy cane, Pat was a witch, Liz was a can-can girl, and David was Austin Powers.  I think we went to a total of 7 pubs that night, and had an awesome time.  Here are a couple photos.  The first one is in an Angkot, the public transportation in Bandung, with a random guy that just happened to get on the bus after us. The second one is in front of the bar 7 Sins, our 5th stop of the night.

    Hi Denise! I laughed out loud looking at your fun costumes (with a tiny persuasion I think I would have dressed up as Billy’s crazy twin “brother” – with purple hair) and knowing firsthand that your group knows how to handle a pub outing! Very kind-hearted of you with the bird-save… well done. Take care!
