We started a new tradition last year. Lured by the mention of snow, we headed off to the then named BBR festival. This year, without any questions, the kids piled in the car to have lunch at the Bastille Festival Sydney. The kids have no interest in French history but they do like food. This year they spanned the globe (in a rather confusing addition of South American, Italian, Spanish and German cuisine).
Lamenting the stunning outdoor cinema view, I wished I'd organised a night out to enjoy the festivities. In my diary for next year, hopefully.
Waddling home after too much cream and cheese, I thought to myself contentedly, sometimes this city makes it so easy to love life.
Do you head out to festivals in the city?

It looks like it was a fun day
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
Now that looked like fun
ReplyDeleteHave a festivaltastic day :-)
Looks like lots of fun. I don't do so well with crowds any more, though. Another of many indications that I'm growing older...

I do love a great festival #MySundayPhoto
ReplyDeleteLove.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like it was a fun day! I bet the food was fantastic! We go to some festivals. They are not really traditions though.

Never been but would love to go.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like it would have been a good one. We often meant to go to things like these when we lived in Sydney, but the getting in & out always seemed so hard. I often wish that we made the effort more. #TeamLovinLife
ReplyDeleteOh a Bastille Festival would very much tempt me! Yours looks like it would have been good! Admittedly, having worked in the city most of my adult life, I'm not generally drawn to go in there on weekends BUT I don't work there anymore so that feeling is fading. I do go in to Southbank quite a bit and if there was a festival in the city that looked tempting I'd be quite happy to grab and girlfriend and head on in! :-) #TeamLovinLife
ReplyDeleteI love that you go to stuff. When I first moved to the Fraser Coast I made an effort to go to almost everything that was on. I had a local FB page and a local blog. I've ditched the first but am slack with the second, but having them made me feel like I HAD to go and try things out which I think was good. I feel less-guilty now if I don't support things. (I'm conscious of the fact a lot of people here complain about there being nothing to do but they don't go to festivals / events that ARE on!) #teamlovinlife
ReplyDeleteYes we do venture out to festivals on the Gold Coast. There seems to be one on every other weekend these days. We recently had a BBQ Festival in the park along the beach near where we live. It was actually a BBQ cook-off and some of the dishes they presented were amazing. #TeamLovinLife
ReplyDeleteOh no, can't believe I missed this one. Thanks for sharing your photos from the day.

Not often ... but trying to get out and about more!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time since I've ventured to a festival in the city, but I do enjoy our local regional shindigs. I miss living in Sydney for this type of event #TeamLovinLife
ReplyDeleteHello Lydia: I'm #21 on the Love Life link. I'm in Toronto, Canada. It's summer time here and this year being Canada's 150, there are many special events in the city/ country. I've been going to a new music festival weekly, plus farmers' markets. It's crazily fabulous!
ReplyDeletei do love festivals but i can't take crowds so it is always a bit of a dilemma - do i go or do i not? we went to one recently which was great if a bit crowded. so fascinating watching the lovely young things wandering around.
ReplyDeleteYou seriously find the quirkiest things. I really wish I was your next door neighbour so I could just follow you around. #teamlovinlife
