Royal Easter Show - Fun


Faces - Facets - Facades ... there are so many aspects to this premier agricultural show within our state, New South Wales. It started as the country coming to the city to 'show' off. And there is still this facet to the show. But there is a commercial aspect, and a fun aspect, not to mention side-show-alley.

I was there for five hours today, and did not go anywhere near SSA. My interest was with the animals, and life in the country. But let's start with the fun ...

Your shots sure do portray fun. I can't stand shows myself but I did attend when I was a teenager and when our children were little. Also as a teacher, one horrifying excursion with two classes from school.

Wonderful. You were quick getting them up. Am only just looking through mine now.

The slides are the color of bright Easter eggs. Cheerful by any standard.

Easter colors on the slide - and what a delightful smile on the child on the carousel ride!
