Nonetheless, it was a pretty autumn Saturday afternoon in Prince Alfred Park where the fest took place. There was a dog parade, 6 music/performance stages, farm animals (where Ziggy first learned Shetland ponies don't ever get big), lots of booths selling what-nots, and tons-o-food. A beverage company was giving out free cans of energy drinks, so it was fun watching everyone in line at the port-o-lets, bouncing up and down, bladders full of Red Bull and Tooheys.

One of the more touching moments was when a 12-year-old kid won an air guitar contest. He came up to accept his prize and simply said "All o' you can fuck off!" His parents laughed, clapped and seemed so proud. Guess this is what Aussies mean when they celebrate being a Larrikin.
