During the school holidays there are always things for the kids going on in the city. Today we headed into town to catch the Lights in the Park. As part of kidsfest this winter holiday they put light sculptures and fixtures in a route around the botanic gardens and after a wander in the mall, a play in the playground, some hot chips and cheese cake (banoffee – it was amazing!) we walked the route in the dark. It was awesome and madam was super brave and didn’t get at all weirded out by the dark. Which sort of surprised us. She not usually that keen on being out after dark.
Very cold, a little bit christmassy and of such fun.
Hubby was in charge of pics 🙂 He wasn’t given that much time for them though as every time we lost sight of him madam wold holler at the top of her lungs ‘daddyyyyyyyy’ …. ‘come on daddyyyyyy’ ha.
wow, such beautiful festival!
it was the greatest fun – and a highlight for the dark evenings
What a great idea from the park, cities obviously have their uses! Feels such a shame that it isn’t Christmas, do you ever do any pretend mini Christmas or other celebration around this time of year?
yup – we often have some sort of sparkler/mini gift thing around august – a sort of ‘wow we are nearly through winter!’ celebration!
