The Ekka

Mikey and I went to "The Ekka" on Saturday. "The Ekka" is the Aussie slang for the exhibition. We had 2 days off of school because it is such a big event. I had no idea what to expect and Michael hadn't been there since he was a little kid. We had a blast walking around from about noon until about 10:30pm. Wewent to and did all of the highlights that Michael used to do when he was a kid....











The show bags are the hit items to buy at the Ekka. When Michael was a kid, he and his brother were not allowed to go to the show bag pavilion until the end of the day because they would never leave there.

We went to the Ekka on the last day so it was an extra special night for fireworks.


Exhausted but we had such a fun day being kids again!
