Purim was great here in Sydney. I rented a costume then I remembered the weather is still summer, so I wore the gorilla costume for about 1 hr then changed to "normal" clothes.
Thursday night we danced and farbrenged till about 1:30am, lots of fun.
Friday i spent the day doing the 4 mitzvos - bringing shaloch manos to people for Tatty and and to other people, washed for the seuda 1/2 hr before shkiah (yes i know you're suposed to wash before chatzos but if you 1st wake up at 11:00am and you need to daven, so it kinda gets pushed off to last minute) and said the 1st 4 lchaims with my friends. Then we went into the shul to daven maariv with a lot of chayos. Then we went to Rabbi Eli Feldman's friday night dinner which usually has around 20 people and we had over 50 people (bochrim, Israelis, a few Californians, and the regulars.) We ate, sang, danced and farbrenged till around 2am.
Surprise: I actually got up for shacharis on time! (I help with the youth minyan, and they needed a minyan so they woke me up at 9:50am.) After davening we had a kidush/Farbrengen that went till 3:00pm and then I rested up for "The Farbrengen that Rabbi Pinchos Feldman invited the whole comunity to." But the Feldmans got stuck in South Africa!! I left the farbrengen at 4:00am and there were still a few bochrim and Israelis farbrenging.
