Gundy Photos and Goss

Hello

Well, we have finally downloaded the photos for the Goondiwindi Expo. What an amazing event.

From Ipswich, it takes 3.5hours. On the way to Gundy, we came across a COTTON FIELD..OMG! This was amazing, we have never seen anything like this before, so we had to stop and take photos...It is like WOOL..or an even better way to describe it, it is like cotton wool...AMAZING

Liesa getting close with the cotton!

We we also had the local wildlife showing off. Across the road on the football paddock was hundreds and hundreds of white cockatoos. Loud and amazing. Once again, we have never seen anything like this. I am sure that the locals would find them quite annoying day in and day out, but for the 2 days that we were there, we were amazed by them. Here is a photo:


The Sea of White birds

Of course, we had to take photos of our stallholders...here are their amazing stalls set up, ready to go...hope you love it:

Liesa, Micky & Miriam

So pleased to hear you had such a good market at Gundy. You're right about those cockies too. Living with them is not fun. They wake you up at daylight and they think you plant crops specially for them!!

What a wonderful idea, I wish it was closer to where I live, so that I could have a stall. Good luck to everyone.
