Last weekend I went to Butterfly Creek with my niece and nephew. It was fun but I did realise that while butterflies are beautiful, they do freak me out when they fly around and try and land on you.
I did find a sign that I thought was awesome.
I am not sure what the barrier was going to do, but I steered well clear of it.
Today, I went to our local Christmas parade. It was a brilliantly sunny day and unfortunately I was ill prepared for the sun, resulting in me getting burnt.
Anyway, local Christmas parades are awesome. They are clearly not as slick as the big events, but what they lack in polish, they make up for with the enthusiasm of the participants. The majority of people are excited to be a part of it, my nephew for example had a blast waving at people. However there are some people who have been forced to participate, and in some cases, forced to wear costumes.
And it is these people who are my favourite part of the parade. For your consideration, I give you the wee fellow below dressed as a parcel and the two girls dressed as bouquets of flowers.
To their credit, they are smiling in these pictures, but I suspect they will have been bribed with the promise of kick arse presents on Christmas Day.
