A Giant Vagina!

Look at this giant vagina being wheeled down the street by a procession of roller bladers! 

What is it doing?! Well, it was Mardi Gras weekend. Mardi Gras is a massive LGBT parade where nearly half a million gays/lesbians/unknown genders descend on Sydney. Naturally it's whacky, colourful and nearly everybody wears no clothes. 

Beside a few giant pink headresses/ penis covers, the 10,000 parade entrants were pretty much naked. I went to watch, as did half a million (literally 500,000) other Sydneysiders, and it was epic. 

Trust the navy to be involved! 

Just joking, the Police, Army, FireService were there too all showing support! 

Even Putin made an appearance.. 

Here's Alex and Ailsa getting gayed up. 

I had to go into the City Sunday morning to teach some swim lessons, and the sight was so funny! Pink stuff everywhere, a carpet of colourful glittery papers, and pairs of guys asleep together took up most of the city's benches! 

Does anybody remember this photo from one of my precious blogs? 

This 'toilet yoga deterrent' - which I though was so ridiculous, because who on earth would feel any kind of need/desire to perch like this? Well.. 

I was wrong.. 

Very wrong! Apparently in Sydney people do like to perch like praying mantis whilst peeing/pooping, signs have been ignored and toilets seats HAVE broken and people most probably HAVE been hurt. I take back everything I said! 

In other news Mr. 4 Year Old climbed to the top of a giant pyramid thing and I couldn't get him down. 

And Mr. 2 Year Old had a haircut, and now looks more like a respectable young man rather than a yeti! I'll get a photo of him when he sits still for more than 0.45 seconds. 

We also discovered a really gorgeous, practically inaccessable beach close to where I love. So cute! <3 SYDNEY!
