Sunny and Dramatic Picnic!

On Saturday I went to my friend Josefine's birthday picnic in Hyde Park.

The weather was fabulous!
Lovely Lauren was there...
and Lucy with a very pretty flower in her hair!
Everyone looked summery and pretty in floral dresses!
We had some pink Cava...
and Josie opened presents.
Antonia and her husband Mike.
Lucy and Katherine were excited about the cake.
We were all chilling in the sunshine when all of a sudden...
We witnessed a really dramatic police bust-up right next to us! There was a gang of kids who had been walking around the park for a few hours being noisy and kinda semed like they were looking for trouble. We saw some police vans driving around and were wondering what was going on when all of a sudden two police officers chased down two guys right next to us! They had guns and everything! Then a van pulls up with another policeman and he's got this super scary police dog and it was all very dramatic! We had no idea what the guys actually did but it was quite a big deal, there was a police helicopter hovering above us and loads of police officers around. And in the middle of everything there's us on a picnic blanket, ha ha! Lauren thought I was crazy for taking a photo but she was the one that looked like she was at the cinema, just watching intensely and wolfing down a youghurt at the same time :)
After the kids and police officers had left we could enjoy ourselves again, so to sum up it was a lovely and dramatic afternoon!
