We went into the city in the morning to see the Myer Christmas windows for which we had to queue for quite some time. We then went into the store to have a look around. As it turned out, we ended up buying more than we bargained for. We had to buy new jeans, undies and socks for Sarah as she had a bit of an accident in store. She’s only been toilet trained for about a month and hasn’t had too many accidents but I tell you what, she picks her times. We didn’t have any spare changes of clothes – guess we were becoming too confident.
We took a drive out into the middle of nowhere (that’s what it felt like) to a place called Fairy Park (www.fairypark.com). I saw it advertised in the Melways and thought that it sounded like a great place to take the girls. It was situated on a large hillside with gorgeous little animated scenes from various fairy tales on display as you made your way up the hill. There were also mushrooms, fairies, cottages and a castle dispersed around the area. The girls then spent much of our time there playing in ‘Camelot’, which was a fantastic fairytale playground for kids of many ages. A ‘castle’ surrounded the play equipment with many different areas of the castle to hide and play in. The girls didn’t want to leave.
