Winter festival at Darling Harbour

This was the first weekend of the Winter Festival at Darling Harbour. It was cold, gray, and a little rainy, but I convinced T to go with me. First we put on our activity game faces.

This is an optical illusion, because one of us is actually really excited.

The Winter Festival flags were up in Darling Harbour, as well as an "iceburg" in the middle of the harbour, just to complete the winter effect!

The best part was in Tumbalong Park: it was a full-on winter scene with a winter tunnel and an ice skating rink!

The little penguins at the skating rink were so cute - the little kids skated around with them for balance.

There were also a few cute little snack places, and a "winter lodge" tent. And the Lindt cafe sponsored a zorb ball in the Harbour that you could run around in!


It started raining and got really cold, which made it feel like winter. But it also wrapped up our little adventure for the day. It was still really fun and it was a taste of winter back home!
