Easter 2010

It has been a really full on weekend for Ryan. For the last day of the long weekend, my mum and I took him to the Royal Easter Show in Greenlane. I thought with him being 3 years old, it's probably a good age to go.

We were there quite early in the day so we can avoid the crowd. Turned out, it was a really good decision as the day turned out to be quite hot.

The main attraction for us was the Ben 10 live show. I think he really enjoyed the show. He was mesmerised by it... sitting and staring at the stage the whole time.

I had my doubts of him going on the rides and I was right. Although he did go on the dodgem car with me. This was when we were in the main amusement rides area. When we were indoor, we saw some kiddie rides and he didn't mind going on them. I think it was the noise that scared him when we were outside and with the big scary rides so close to the kids' ones, it didn't help. Anyway, he went on a few and was really happy.

He was scared of the animals that were there - yes, he is scared of a lot of things :) - but was really fascinated with the little piglets feeding off their mum. He even tried his hands at milking a cow. It wasn't a real cow but it was good to see him doing something different.

Anyway, that's the weekend gone. It's back to school for him tomorrow.
