Luna Park

Yesterday we all went to Luna Park. It was for James' birthday which was a week ago. We decided that he wasn't going to have a party this year so we took him, Emily and Paul (a friend) on an outing instead. We dragged Aimee along as well as David hates rides and I can't go on them because I am pregnant. The tickets at Luna Park are done by height so if you are taller than 130cm you can go on any ride you like, between 106-129cm you can co on some and go on others with someone over 18. James was 128cm. It was very frustrating, especially because Paul was over 130cm and was able to go on things that James couldn't. At one stage James and Emily went on the 'kiddy' rides while Paul and Aimee went on the pirate ship (I think it is called the ranger there), poor James looked soooooo bored on the kiddy rides and jealous that Paul got to go on the cool ones.

Emily was a little brat on the way there and almost got sent home with David. She just threw a massive tantrum on the way there, I can't even remember why because it was such a stupid reason. David and Emily just don't mix when they are cranky. She gets to a point where she has just 'lost it' and needs to be calmed down before any sense can be talked into her and David refuses to hug her (which calms her down) until she stops throwing a tantrum. It makes for a fun experience as they can both be as bad as each other - it must be the red hair.

We got lots of photos. Proof that my children are insane. Some of the rides I just had to hold my hands over my mouth as I watched my tiny little babies spin around and go up high and stick to walls. I guess they are getting bigger than I like to think they are. I will post some photos when I work out where David put the camera.
