Ooh did you get a random kid to take the photo?

This is great. I'm glad there isn't too much incriminating evidence of my terrible singing in this. It was lovely meeting you guys and your dress was super cute by the way. I don't think I told you that.
You were brave to sing, I loved your enthusiasm and you sang well! I’m shy at these things but when everyone’s into it I can do it!
Thanks! I don’t usually wear so much red but I’m trying out more bold colours these days!

Yeah we've organized a couple of steemph meetups here in abu dhabi last year, one in Dubai in Jan this year then a blood letting campaign... we were an active bunch. Then they all kinda hibernated. Hahaha

Haha that sounds like something to do with the prices rising and then dropping
Posted using Partiko iOS
Yup. Definitely prices driven. 😅😂

Congrats!!!! I was scared My first Steemit meet up. I thought someone was gonna chop me up #snappluscomment
Aww was it an organised meetup?

Still, people get kidnapped every day. Going out, the process getting on public transportation, all that is a new experience for me. Being disabled, I can no longer drive. So going out a meeting people, organized or not is a scary thing for me. I think of worst case scenarios. The good thing about that was one time I actually saved me in my friend from getting robbed. There are so many people that are coming up missing here in the US because of online meet UPS regardless. So it's a scary thing when you're disabled and you don't have a husband or somebody they can do it with you. So for obvious reasons I can see why you're not scared. Duh. Sorry dumb question I guess. #snappluscomment
Posted using Partiko Android
Aww that’s true, with all the scary stories in the US I’d be scared too🙁.. I wouldn’t be able to go myself, I had to have someone with me.
How did you save yourselves from being robbed? 😱

There was a guy on a hiking trail and when we arrived we were getting things together in the vehicle so it took us about 10 minutes to even get out but I noticed that he had already started on the trail. By the time we got our the car and had all of equipment it was 10 min. At the trail head I saw the gentleman. I could tell. he lived on the streets but he was a little organized. He had a walkie talkie. Not many people carry those to day. So I felt like maybe there was somebody else on the trail. While my friend and I were looking at the trailhead post, it's where it tells you any the hazards the difficulty of it and any animals that you may or may not run into. He came around right behind her and I like reading the posts sign. On the sign it says no dunk tanks. My friend and I always laugh about that because we always say why would they have dunk tanks out here and what would they be doing with them for them to ban them question work because it's odd thing the sea on a trailhead post. I dropped my Electronic cigarrette that I know how the battery pops out of and I made a huge like spectacle of it. To get him to backup away from us and I said look did you see that Like very animated, he almost an expect it. I said no dunk tanks did you bring any dunk tanks. And while he was sitting there laughing I said Liz can we get back to the car I need to fix this my E- cigarrette, well it's like a tank and you use cartridges, I knew it pops loudly when it falls, its metal. I created a distraction and odd set of situations to confuse him long enough not to have the courage to pop a knife out and steal my camera and equipment. When we walked back towards the vehicle I saw him still standing by the sign. My friend Liz was confused but she knew something wasn't right about the situation and I told her why I did everything that I did. And it all made sense. They do that . they go where people are Urban explore and they steal people's cameras I know I saw a countdown video showing people and YouTube get their stuff stolen when their live streaming and everything. You could tell he was like huh???
Posted using Partiko Android
Wow! So glad you knew how to create a distraction and you knew with guy feeling! Did you have a lot of gear with you? We’re you doing a full video shoot?

Matt is quite the meetup guru and it sounds like Arly is quite the hostess!
Ooh sounds like you’ve met them before!
Posted using Partiko iOS
Only Matt and the other two Adelaidians. :D
This was a really good video. It was a shame you couldn't be here earlier, but then you would have encountered the massive storm. I am glad that you made it when the weather cleared though.
I was meaning to ask how you felt about the Mene jewellery but didn't get the chance.
Posted using Partiko Android
Hey thanks for watching and being there! What do you mean by how I felt? Hehe you can feel free to ask me about it now :)
Posted using Partiko iOS
I mean, did you like the jewellery? Did you feel it was worth the price?
I'd like to be able to possibly market Mene jewellery, but I can't afford it myself.
I think they’re great at connecting with their buyers and promo and that helps me like them more hehe
#Mene also an investment jewellery store and that’s unique. Their prices fluctuate as gold goes up and down which is quite awesome.
So that’s why I bought from them.
I could easily have gone elsewhere and bought nicer unique designs for cheaper if I had wanted that.
But I admit it is quite pricey because of the extra delivery fee for international orders and prices in usd hehe.
I should have bought more or chosen better with my first order to save postage and be more practical lol.

It was so much fun. And the goodies in the Steemit bag. Did @bearone fork out all the money by herself for all the goodies and food? 'coz there were so many food and all the awesome stuff in the bag.
I enjoyed watching your video :)
We paid 50sbd or $70aud for each person :)
But some stuff was also sponsored.
There was so much food and drink left over! Haha
