Floriade in Canberra

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 at 11:55 am

Just backtracking through my old blog and finding some of the stuff that never got posted.

Everyone thinks that Canberra is a really boring place. I will hardly deny it, but there are some nice quirks about the place, 2 main ones being Floriade and Skyfire.

Floriade is a flower exhibition every Spring. They cover the entire Commonwealth Park in flowers. The flowers are arranged in patterns, according to a theme. In 2004, it was a space theme, and the flowers were arranged to make up designs like solar systems etc.

So here’s a gallery of the never-seen pix of my trip to Floriade 2004:

Byebye Car

Thursday, August 25th, 2005 at 10:49 am

This lovely Nissan Pintara has brought me so many places: Subaru Rally, Tidbinbilla, Melbourne (twice), Sydney (nth times!), Brisbane, and not forgetting all the different suburbs in Canberra on my pizza delivery trips. Will miss it so much! My first manual car, and also my first decent trustworthy car :)

Car Wash!

Friday, May 6th, 2005 at 4:44 am

And here we can see my new car, the white Nissan Pintara that I have mentioned in recent posts. We (me, Sharon and Ivan) are at Car Lovers, a DIY car wash. You place your coins in the machine and you get 1.5 min per dollar to do what you want to the car. Started off with the foam brush, then a high pressured rinse, liquid polish, after-rinse, and finally a spot-free rinse.
