Noorat Show

Mum, GP, Grandma, Ben & Chloe all had a day out at the Noorat Show on the 18th. Got there about 11a.m. and stayed for a bit over four hours. Weather fairly warm, but everyone survived really well. Lots to do and see - quite a good, little country show.

Started with a few rides and interests for the kids - keep them happy. Mostly nice, sedate stuff like the ferris wheel, jumping castle/slides and pig train ride. Don't want to get them too hyped up, early in the day. If the youngsters have a good day, everyone has a good day - and we all know the opposite situation.

Had a combination of rides, seeing the various exhibits. A bit of lunch (Rob & I even shared a cold Crownie). A camel ride (but not for the "oldies"). Couldn't get Lorelle & Ben away from the dodgems for a while. Not sure who was the worse/better driver, but they both seemed to enjoy the crashing and banging (and that was just walking along, getting there). Chloe would have loved to get into her own car and to rip up the track, but we thought it might be a bit 'scary' for her - probably right.

Finished as we started with a ferris wheel ride for Ben and more slides for Chloe. Then a relax back at home - what little angels!

Ben then finished off a really big day by going to the Monster Trucks at the showgrounds at Warrnambool with dad.
