australia day weekend

Ok, so its not to craziest ride in the carnival.... but it does wizz around!

The winning monstrosity.
The scene of the big win!

We had a lovely Australia day weekend down here on the Peninsula. A few have laughed that we live and holiday on the same turf - but we love it!

Growing up we would go to the carnival in Rosebud, eat dagwood dogs, and go on as many rides as we were allowed. It seems a lot smaller now - or maybe we are just bigger.

Anyway the kids loved it, and we even won a prize. Its funny as a kid all you wanted to do was win a big toy at the fair. Now I'm doing everything to avoid the dust waster, often warped, easily split, gaudy coloured, dust collector from coming back to our house! - but sure enough 29 on the clowns wins the biggest and longest of them all (1.5m) - I think I accidentally left it at the caravan park!! 

Whoops!!
