Kumeu Show

On Saturday we went to the Kumeu Show. I gave up on Pasifika this year as it was sooo packed last year and although good for a feed, is not that exciting for kids. The attraction of the Kumeu show was my memories of the good ol A & P Show I used to go to growing up in Tokoroa. It was really cool, lots of interesting things for little eyes to see and cool things for the little man to do. Nanny came with us as Dean and my Dad were out fishing - they got heapsa fish too!

Nathan was not as interested in the giant pumpkin as he was in his new hot wheels car. They had a whole tent/stall with hot wheels which I paid about 60c more that what I could have got one for at the Warehouse :) They did have lots of old school collector looking ones too though.

That was one overpriced balloon that Nathan's Nanny got sucked into buying (by her mokopuna) that got donated to the sky a day later

The system for these rides is silly, you have to buy coupons and each ride is worth a different amount of coupons. So I bought some so Nathan could go on the Merry go round and so we could go on the Ferris Wheel, as he has not been too adventurous lately, but once he saw all the little kiddie rides, that was that, he wanted them all. So there went my coupons for the Ferris Wheel, which I actually was kinda keen on. But not $10.50 for the two of us keen. Tight ay :)

He had lots of fun and didn't want to go, but he zonked out in the car straight away.
