This is a very late post...regarding Ekka. What is Ekka? Honestly, i don't know what is Ekka when i went there, i just know that there will be many stalls selling different things and it is a very famous festival in Brisbane. So, of course i won't miss it!
Ekka, formal title would be Royal Queensland Show (which i think if u mention this, no one in Brisbane know what are u mentioning...) and is an annual Queensland show. Initially it is named as Brisbane Exhibition, but due to the laziness..oops, i mean culture of shortening English words, Exhibition become Ekka.
*我跟你讲, 澳洲真的很懒的啦~ 什么字都把它给缩短...举例来说, afternoon 变成 arvo , breakfast 变成 breaky, 所以理所当然的, exhibition 就变成 ekka lo!*
ok, 简单来说呢, 这从一开始是要向别人展示自家的agriculture product 和多么先进的新仪器, 然后再炫耀一下自家的牛羊马长的多么地健康....到了现在, 虽然仍然保有动物展览, 人们去的目的却不再是看牛羊了...由于每年进场的人数都在增加, 主办当局其实不停地在增加吸引人群的事物, 例如多了可以玩游戏赢公仔的stalls, 由赞助商赞助并以较低价出售的货品 (eg: cadbury, sweets, dolls, magazines, foods...), 以及各种不同类型地食物档.....真是眼花缭乱啊!!
(像在写小学作文酱....)
无论如何, 反正当天早上, 我们就从 city 搭巴士到现场, 然后走了一整天, 回家时, 脚都就快要断了...
好吧,再怎么累, 照片还是不会少, 慢慢过目吧! 我懒惰形容了..hehe.

入口处
if i remember correctly, his name is Romeo.and he is definitely not meant for us, he is there to entertain children...
现场示范牧羊狗赶羊入围栏那些狗真的很灵活,
后来才知道那是一场比赛, 谁家的狗在最短的时间完成任务, 谁家就赢了!

掌声鼓励鼓励!!
好吧, 看在一场同乡之谊:
好男人哦!!! 还帮我们拿东西呢!! 然后就是在大家跑掉的时候, 好好人地帮我们看东西....
