It's been quite sometime since i had so much fun. Today is the last day of the Moomba Festival here is Melb. It is an annual event that is celebrated during their Labour Day in March. 'Moomba' is an aboriginal word that stands for 'let's get together and have fun'. Traditionally, there will be a carnival, floats and fireworks. They held the floats parade in Swanston Street every year but i miss out. So in the evening, we went to Yarra River to take a look at the carnival and most importantly, to see the fireworks.
Check out all the food and games stalls. After a quick bite, me and dar took a pic together. Its been quite sometime since we had one. Well, the carnival had its fair share of thrill rides and games stalls. Of course there are also popcorn and candy stands. Because it was organise next to a river, there are also some water activities as well.
I'm not really interested in those games so we decided to find a good spot to catch the fireworks display. We climb up a slope and got a much higher viewing ground. See the pic below, all those stalls, ferris wheel and all that crowd.
The video below is just a small part of the fireworks display. I guess anyone who has seen an actual display of fireworks will agree that it look so much more beautiful when it's right before you. More interesting updates coming along tomorrow!!
