Goodbye carousel
The Fringe festival closes tonight, for another two years... although our premier has suggested we might be having the festival every year? We made the most of the evening regardless and had two rides on the carousel... I did something I never thought I would do.... I woke Moopy up from her sleep at 8:30pm after I had made up my mind that we could not miss one last evening in the Garden of unearthly delights... I was relieved to see at least a dozen other kids Lily's age enjoying their late night icecreams and carousel rides. And I finally remembered my camera... although the flash makes the photos washed out so I appologies for the blurry yellow, non flash pics.
I am so completely jealous! The fringe festival looks incredible. Those pictures are gorgeous!

ahh... tis a sad time. after 2-and-a-bit weeks of flat out fringing (either volunteering or partaking of shows) it's all over... what am I going to do now with the 6 hours that lay between work finishing and sleep starting??!

That carousel looks amazing! Sometimes it's definitely worth upsetting the 'routine' for special moments like these - captured beautifully I might add!
