With lots to see when you’re acting as guide.
There’s the expected sites,
and the unexpected!
(I now want to do something similar in the back yard!!!)
All the fun of the fair!
I’m late to update. I told myself I’d try to get in a post a week about all we’ve been up to. But sometimes life takes over and this wee little blog is the one to suffer. But it’s a good post I have planned! I promise! (Well, I had fun!)
Himself and I ended up at the local street fair on the weekend. It was hard not to! You walked up the street and there it was! Living in Sydney’s Italian district does have advantages when things like this happen! The local colour is very colourful!
They closed off the main street, and it was just packed with people.
Not to mention mascots!
I managed to catch up on a new street art installation
And the Fiats were out in FORCE! (Well, the Fiat Car club had a carpark reserved for them to show off in!)
But what would an Italian festival be without food? So much food! (I’m sorry I didn’t get a photo of our pizzas, but we ate them before I remembered to document.)
They managed to pack so much in! Even when they ran out of street they over ran into the local park for rides
And a petting farm
(FLUFFY CHICKEN!!!)
And performances in Venetian masks! (you can just make out the live chess board pieces in the back ground)
So much fun for all ages. I can’t wait for next year now! *grin bounce*
Then there was fish
Himself and I hosted a small soiree of familial proportions recently. We were aiming for relaxed gathering that was a little different to what we normally do. I think we achieved our goal admirably!
We began by heading down the road to the Sydney Fish Markets, where, as the name suggests, you can buy fish.
Did I mention fish?
And marine life?
And fillets! (of fish)
And marine life!
But there’s so much more to the Fish Markets! On any visit you can buy everything you need for a large party, or small gathering. From the wine,
To the deli selection of cheeses, cured meats, and sauces.
If you’re inclined towards a romantic encounter, you can also purchase a good start on the way to any woman’s heart; flowers
Followed by a mountain of chocolate!
Fill in
(This is a fill in post from back on the 23rd Dec 2008. Back to normal scheduled blogging shortly.)
Did I ever tell you how much I love Adventures? *grins*
On the weekend, we went on a mini adventure that I’ve been wanting to do for a while. We went on a Bear Hunt.
Now, I know what you’re thinking; Bears? In the Mountains? Who’d have thought?
But they are there! They exist! And we shot them.
Proof you say?
They were trying to escape! But we got them! WE WON!
