perth royal show

sorry this post took so long.. abit of warning first, there's going to be PLENTY of pictures (yes, pictures of me also.. so mummy won't complain she can't 'see' me). anyway, pow and i went to perth royal show! i bugged him for quite a long time for it. *thanks for being so sporting*



this would be the perfect present for juleen.

we came to this huge barn-looking place.. and there were crazy loads of chickens/birds. most of them were award-winning.. but some of them look mutated.

'ball in throat'

oh, this one is normal.. just extremely huge.
but you probably can't tell from this picture.

'budding beak'

'furry feet'

'cruella de vil'

sorry for all the random names.. haha. those i saw after were more regular looking.





i wanted to get a ride but it's for kids.



adorable right.. baby emu.



ducklings!!

some powdery candy.


hermit crabs.. i think. they paint the shells really prettily.
quite a neat idea for a pet.



one of the highlights of the show.. the goodie bags. this stall just has the confectionary.. there were so many showbags to choose from. (:

my only goodie bag for the day.

hee.. our first ride at the show. chair lift.. 7 bucks for about 5-7 minutes in the air. it's not that bad.

see how he's grabbing onto the pole.. haha. yea.. he admitted he's scared.

our feet were dangling in mid-air.
i think it's really fun, but pow says he had the 'balls drop' feeling.




yea.. the fun rides!


one of those "peel-and-win" kind of stuff. $2 a ticket. pow wanted to play for fun.
we didn't win with this one though.


yay.. our first prize. pow named her tabby.

second go at the 'peel-and-win' was a waste of money..
but pow said to give it one last shot

and we got dino. (:

i saw this ride and asked pow if we can ride it. he says he don't dare...

so we took the roller coaster instead.

we walked around some more and saw other stuff..


i really like these displays.. the most pretty pastries you'll see ever.



barbies 50th birthday cake. haha!


yes.. even this is a cake.

i saw a sign that reads "TOFFEE APPLE $3". couldn't resist.


enjoyed my toffee apple while watching bike stunts.

err.. yea. the bikers too fast already so all my pictures were blur.
the horses much slower.. so i can post this picture instead.

this one was cool. the switched off all the lights and these riders came out.
pretty cool stuff.

yay! fireworks are starting!






the pretty fireworks lasted about 8-10 minutes.. hence a happy, happy me.

there was still time before the place closed, so i decided to take the ride myself.

best ride i've had in a long while.

at showgrounds train station.. heading home.

thanks for the wonderful company.. it's the best i could ask for.
