Fleuressence

The annual spring flower display is on at David Jones in the City and Mum and I popped in with J this week to have a peek. We've taken O for the past two years and this year we took J (while O was at daycare). This year's theme is Fleuressence, a celebration of fragrance. Ooh, I'm so late with this post... as it ends today!

Spring Diary

We saw beautiful flowers starting to peep out today on our walk to the park. Which got me to thinking of upcoming Spring things to pop in the diary.

The Drummoyne Public School Fete is on Sunday 26th August this year. We had a ball last time, so we'll be going again this year. The Festival of the Winds down at Bondi flying kites. We've not been before and are going this year - Sunday 9th September from 11am to 4pm.

Le Printemps, Primavera, Spring!

David Jones Sydney City store - is a little further afield than Marrickville... however, a trip into town to check out the blossoms seems to be an annual spring outing for us! We took O last year, when he was 10months.

I seem to remember the flowers being more spectacular last year - but it's still worth a pop in to see if you are around those city parts. The flowers themselves are beautiful, while the arrangements did not stagger me! All the street window displays are decked out in flowers too and then pop inside to the ground floor more up close flower action - 30,000 flowers apparently!

Floriography: The Language of Flowers, ‘Celebrating 26 Years’ at our Elizabeth Street store.

It's only on from 1-11 September 2011, so make haste!
