Sunday excursion


Sunday we went to the botanical garden to watch the Redbull Flagtug. This is a flying competition of objects from a point. It's the first time they have it in Sydney and even though we went one and a half hour earlier, we did not get a good spot. The carpark at the domain was full so we actually park at the one for Australian Museum. It cost us a falt rate of $12 so we decided to visit the Australian museum again. Last visit was in January and there was not dinosaur exhibits. Children were really excited to wanna see the dinosaur exhibition.

After we settled down on the grass, we started having picnic. I had prepared pizza for lunch. Only took 25 mins to heat them up and of course I always top up with lots of cheese. The competitors were funny. They took so long to prepare their object but it only take a few seconds to destroy them. People were laughing as the sight was funny seeing objects and people dropped from the platform.

As parents all of you might know that kids have no patience so after about 10 objects hit the water, we were all ready to go. Charles broke his sandals' strap again and I must find a way to fix it when we reached home.

The exhibition at the Australian museum was fun. Took some photographs maybe to share it online. Kids were exhausted after the trip. In fact they must be as the night before they stayed up till 11pm for Harry Potter.

It's another bautiful sunday and really dread the coming of Monday.
