First of all:
I'm so sorry that you had to wait that long, but here is the first Part of my Report!
Getting started!
Well there was a lot going on befor the Tea Party. I sat on my bed on Thursday evening. Everything was packed and I thought, it would be a good idea to check the Facebook Page and see, if everythings going its planed way.Oh dear!!!!
There was a post from John Leigh! He, his wife and the special Guest missed their flight at Istanbul and will not reach Hamburg befor 19.06. - 11 am. Therefore the Event will be shifted by 2 hours.
I didn't followed the complete Comments but belive me, there was a lot going on! I understand, that this delay caused Problems for a lot of People, but for me it was very helpful.
The delay gave me the time I needed to get ready for the Tea Party. You have to know, that I arraived in Hamburg on Frieday: 10:30 am. I had to get to Hotel, check in, find my room, make styling and make-up, get dressed and finaly go to the event location...
I would have never NEVER made until 12 o'clock, so the unexpected delay was just right for me!
Friday (19.06.15)
The first Problem at the Tea Party? Finding the Tea Party! I reached the Rathaus Hamburg by underground train. Outside the Rathaus...no Lolita anywhere! Inside the Rathaus...no Lolita anywhere! I got really nervous! Maybe this was the wrong place! Damn! I asked a Man at the Information Point inside the Rathaus, but he could not tell me where the Tea Pary is. Obviously he did not know anything about this Event.Finally I found a entrance to a Restaurant that is located in the Basement of the Rathaus. I looked though the glas-door and saw LOLITAS!! Yes!
Anime Matsuri reserved a seperated Room at the Restaurant where we had our "privacy" and our own waiter. The Room was already crowded with beautifuuuuul Lolitas, when I arrived. It was really hard to decide where to look first. It was like "Oh she looks sooo beautiful! Oh I like this dress! Oh this Coord is amazing!"
I found a free seat at the table where some of the girls of my community where already sitting.
The Event started with a short speech from John Leigh. He introduced himself, his wife, some People of the Organisation and appologized for the delay of the Event. Of course he also introduced the special guests: Misako Aoki, Aya Nimura (Victorian Maiden), Chinatsu Taira (Metamorphose Temp the Fills) and Gabriel (TokiMeki)!
On this Day Misako was wearing Metamorphose x Barbie Ribbon JSK. It is a limited Edition, that was only available in Tokyo. Doesn't she look super cute??
John finished his speech and opened the buffet, because everyone was hungry. The food was really good and there was enough for everyone. Tea was also included in the ticket price, everything else had to be paied addional.
This was our table. What do you think? Looks good, right? ;-)
You might wonder, if we didn't received a goody-bag. Of cause, we did. Here is a Picture of the content (we received a second bag on Saturday and I packed everything together in on bag. Because of this, I might mixed the post cards of both days).
Content: A lot of post cards, a pin with Midori on it, a Cameo and a little Towel from Victorian Maiden.
After everybody got something to eat (by the way, the speical guest got a huge plate of fries), there was a Q&A with the special guests.
Poppy Noir was sooo cute. She asked Aya Nimura from Victorian Maiden, if they are planing to make different sizes of their Dresses, because she loves the Dresses of the Brand, but she does not fit in them. The Answer was: Yes they are thinking about it and planing something in that way. At the End Poppy Noir started to cry, because she was so nevoues and this question meant so much to here. I can totaly understand here. I also love VM-Dresses, but there is no chance for me, to fit in them. Thank you Poppy-Noir for asking!
After that, everybody got the chance to make pictures with the special guests and finally there was a signing session with Misako.
Whe had to change the room at the restaurant for the signing session. I entered the room and thought "Wow, this is amazing!"
I got my autographe on KERA! Vol. 201. Misako was on the Cover of this KERA!. I also wanted her to sign my Instax on the back, but finally I didn't asked for this, becaus the pen she used was not practical to write on plastic.
Of course we had to make a Group-Picture at the End of the Event and if you think "That many People?" Ha ha, wait for my Report of Day 2!
Of course I could tell you more, but I think, this was enought text now ;-)
