Scarecrow festival

Sunday 28 October

Today we went to Kurrajong for the
scarecrows festival.
We have never been so it was an
adventure, we did not know what to expect.

 There was a market selling all type of things
and selling scarecrows.
They was a nice fresh produces stall but I
have already done my weekly shopping.

 
 and there was a display of some home made scarecrows
 this one had kids photos for the face!!!!!
 Humpty Dumpty
 

 This lady was spinning alpaca wool and
next to it was a stall selling all knitted scarves etc.
(very expensive for my purse)

 
 You could go for a $5 bike ride
 We walk around the village and in a lot of
places bush bands were playing
 I like that teddy in a shop
 also a display of old machine


 cute kids, like the dog face.
 back at the fete
school kids dancing and in between more bush bands
 Then I went to pat the alpacas

 
DOGS SHOWS
 
 the winner a lion
 2nd: Trucker dog
 and the 3rd
 this one was one of my favorite a pirate
 this was crow he came with his mate
scarecrow
 scarecrow and crow and their owner the farmer (3years old)

 
We listen to more bush music. the next band asked us to sing along.
I had fun.
The Kurrajong scarecrow festival had a bit of everything.
We spent a nice relaxing day.
We saw more scarecrows on our way out of the village.
