Royal Ascot...Our First Event with the Queen




Every year men put on their best morning suits (tails with grey pants and top hats) and women fancy hats to parade around, drink pims and champagne, oh yeah and watch horse racing :o) The Queen and other royals attend each day and there is a special procession were everyone looks at her outfit and matching hat (they even bet on the color of her hat, she wore a blue hat on Saturday when we went which I guessed). We picnicked outside before the races and then continued the party inside...i was in heaven with ALL the people watching :o)

John and some of his ATK colleagues we went with...it was an awesome time even though we didn't win one bet :o)
