Canberra in Autumn

Autumn is by far the best time of year in Canberra and the season kicks off with a bang in March with the Enlighten festival and other celebrations surrounding Canberra day on March 14th.

The really good bit is when all the leaves start to change colour, the gorgeous clear days and the crisp mornings before the frost begins to fall and it starts to get a bit too cold for my liking.

Hopefully I will be able to bring you some pictures of Canberra throughout the season.

Starting with our family outing this morning to the annual hot air balloon festival.

It was a pre-dawn start to see the whole process from beginning to end.

Seeing the flames up close is quite spectacular.

 

As you can see - there are quite alot!

Old Parliament house in the background.

What a busy Week!

 

Play School - The Show is coming to Canberra!

 The Ever Popular Television Show! Live in Concert.
Featuring Two Presenters plus the toys from the popular television show.
This show is full of active participation.
Play School, which celebrates its 42nd birthday this year, has featured some of Australia’s leading actors as presenters over the years.
These popular Play School live shows are specially designed to delight pre-schoolers and parents alike.
Each show features 40 minutes of songs, games and stories with many of the well-loved toys plus along with two past or present presenters from the television series.
The roars of approval heard whenever they appear on stage attest to the ongoing popularity of Big Ted, Little Ted, Jemima and Humpty
.As with the television program, everything in the concerts is carefully paced especially for children.
There are songs to move to, as well as quiet times to just watch and listen.
The familiarity of the material totally engages the young audience for the 40-minute duration of the concerts
Audience numbers are limited per session so those children
can see and hear the show easily, and move about safely.

We are going along! It should be a whole lot of fun for the bubs!

Not a whole lot of crafting going on this week - we have been busy doing boring chore type activities.

I took Harris for his first swing ride at the park this morning - he seemed to really enjoy  himself!
