"Valborg" down under

Som student i Uppsala skulle jag vilja påstå att Valborg är årets absolut största händelse. 10 stycken Uppsala studenter, "fast" i Perth kände frustration och skräck över att inte kunna deltaga i chanpagnefrukost, forsränning, chill i Ekoparken, sillunch  och champagnegalopp. Vad skulle vi nu göra? Man kan INTE missa Valborg. Som tur är finns det driftiga personer i vårt gäng. Jag gillar dem, "doers". Så, Valborg down under var styrt:) Det blev en fantastiskt rolig dag. Strålande sol hade vi också. Fick faktiskt till en riktig Valborgskänsla och definitivt ett Valborg jag kommer minnas!
Jag bjuder på inbjudan som The OzValD -kommitén snickrat ihop och några bilder, så förstår ni att Australiensarna inte tyckte vi var riktigt kloka!
Take care!

"Valborg Down Under!

First thing first, don't forget:

-A lot of champagne (sparkling wine), preferably 4 bottles each.
-Floating device (it's ok to watch, but a bit boring. An inflatable mattress works fine)
-Lunch to complement the Swedish snack
-CLOTHES TO GET WET IN! (Champagne shower is a wet activity
-Beverage for the whole day
-Have nice clothes prepared for the evening outgoing

Here is the schedule for the day:

9.00 Champagne breakfast in Nedlands (at Celina and Tomas' place, 45 Leura st, Nedlands)
11.00 River rafting in Swan River (Matilda bay)
13.30 Sillunch (=Harring-lunch) in a nearby park
15.00 Champagne gallop (showers)
16-isch. Home for shower and dinner
19.00 Gather at Perth Train Station (on the platfrom for the train towards Midlands, which you exit the train on from freemantle) to "make" party!

So, a small explanation is probably in order for those who have never been in Uppsala during Valborg. These are just guidelines but strongly recommended. (Please note: This is the day where Swedish students maximize their resistant training on their livers, feel free to exceed the recommended amount of liquids)

For the CHAMPAGNE BREAKFAST (09.00) you will need to have
-One half to one bottle of champagne (if you can afford it and want to brag) or sparkling wine.
-Strawberries
-Sandwich of your choice

THE RIVER RAFTING (11.00)
-Floating device (inflateable boat/pool, tractor tyre, shipwreck)
-Wetsuit (we'll hang around in the rafts for about 2 hrs)
-Drink of choice on the raft (beer cans, not glass, goon bags may work as emergency buoys, just finish them and inflate. Main thing, don't litter and ruin Valborg for everyone!)

SILLUNCH (Harring lunch 13.30) - Swedish traditional holiday lunch and chill in the park. If people would be kind and chip in, the OzValD will make sure that a small snack will be cooked and provided for lunch, consisting of:
-Sill
-Boiled potatoes
-Crisp bread
-Sour cream

This will satisfy your tasting onions (buds), but may not fill you up, so bring something more to eat if you're a hungry person.

CHAMPAGNE GALLOP (showers) (15.00)
-At least 2 bottles of sparkling wine, or
-Soda streamed goon
(If filthy rich, you could still go with the real deal Champagne) This is brought for spraying on your fellow mates, and to a small extent to drink. But mostly spray.

(16.00-isch) When everybody is soaked it's time to shower and get ready for a great night out. Go home, shower,eat, dress and we all assemble at the Perth Train Station on the platform where Freo people get of, on the way to Midlands 19.00.
If you're not there by 19.10 you'll have to call somebody to see where we head out. (Northbridge most likely)

Don't hesitate to ask if questions come to mind, or if you would like to ad something to the schedule.
