Royal Ascot

Jon, Camille and I had another unbelievable day in London. Jon hit Moss Bros early this morning to pick up his morning coat and top hat. Once we were all dressed, Robert our driver picked us up and took us to Opening day of Royal Ascot. One of the Queen’s favorite pastimes in horseracing and this is her horseracing party. The grounds are truly amazing and this year was the second year of the new building and they have really perfected everything.
Once we were in the Royal Enclosure. We went to the Parade Ring to watch The Queen, Camilla, Prince Charles and others ride in by horse and carriage and then go to the Royal Box. We all had a bit of lunch, pimm’s cups and champagne and then bet on the first race, which Camille was a winner. The horse races are truly secondary to the hats and fashion of Royal Ascot. It is the most amazing hat fashion show in the world. There are thousands of ladies and everyone’s hat is unique.
We all fell asleep in the car on the way back to the hotel. We had had such an amazingly fun day. We got back

to the hotel and met Sabu and Saori some of friends of Camille’s for dinner at the hotel. We had a fabulous day and loved every minute of it. I can’t wait for Thursday, it is ladies day at Ascot and the hats are truly amazing on this day.
