More Christmas Fun!

Posted on November 26, 2007November 27, 2009 by BritMumInNZ

It’s not even December and everywhere I turn there’s a flyer for another Christmas Festival or event in one of Wellington’s many suburbs [wotzon.com]. With the good weather shining its blessing on Wellington we ventured into the city on Saturday to be greeted by music, jugglers, face-painting, merry-go-round and bouncy castle. It’s wonderful to share these events with children and magical to capture the wonder in their eyes on film.


Charlotte was particularly excited to see Percy the train and went on a joyous ride around Wellington city central. It was a sizzling day and after the fun-rides and music we cooled down in Midland Park; where Charlotte found great pleasure in the water sculpture!



Later that evening I journeyed out with Marrisa to enjoy a rare few drinks in the city! Cheers!
