Zoo Time

We had a church family camp down the coast. It was a great weekend.


Okay, so I'm a mean aunty. But giving my nephew a tail was pretty funny! :D


The ducks were very friendly - clearly residents of the caravan park.



We spent Sunday at the zoo which the nephew loved.

Floriade Nightfest

Hubby and I went to Floriade Nightfest. I've been a couple of times before and it's always really good. It has a different atmosphere at night - more like a festival, and the lights are gorgeous.


Any perfect evening starts by reading a book by the lake at sunset...






Space ballerinas - funky!


A giant rubber duck on the pond - as you do. Nah, it was to support the Yellow Van (who help feed homeless people) so a good cause.



See, there is a magical atmosphere at night.


Although sometimes you feel like you are walking through a suspenseful crime show scene! ;)


There was even a laser pathway through the trees. I could feel the lasers moving over my skin, which was creepy. It was really cool though.

Floriade

The annual Floriade trek to view the flowers, accompanied by a lovely picnic lunch in the park.



Mum broke her foot a few weeks before, so she had to get an electric wheelchair. We laughed at her a bit, but she secretly enjoyed 'zooming' around the park. (Mmm, top speed is about walking pace!)


Hubby and I amongst the flowers.


Lil' sis and I taking selfies!



The view from the ferris wheel.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I was prepping the veggies for pizza tonight, and admired the vibrant rainbow it made. Yum-yum!
