Adding some blog entry in between work and more work. Last Saturday my friend and I went to the Royal Adelaide Show on its last day. It was something like a giant fun fair with the whole Wayville Showgrounds abuzz with activity. There's the section with all the rides, games etc and there is a section selling show bags. Show bags are something like goody bags with some novelty stuff in them together with toys, junk food and just plain junk. I saw one show bag with a toy rifle that is almost 1:1 scale, has a scope and even has the V support for the barrel. That is the closest you can get a toy gun to look like the real thing. Too bad it ran out of stock. That is one of the "gun" toy show bags. Got Pokemon showbag, Transformer showbag (with transformer mechandice, but not the transformer itself), Yugioh showbag.
The bags I bought is the Kit kat one and the Coca-cola show bag, in which the Coke one gives you a REAL brand new nylon bag with 2 coke bottles and some coke goodies. The Coke bag only costs AU10 since it is the last day and must have sold badly earlier this week (the Pepsi one is wayyy better with a grey bag and some useful goodies... but sold out).
I bought a can shaped camera from the Coke stall. There's even a flash version, but the one I bought is the normal version. Not bad though, the size is almost similar to that of a REAL CAN.
Then another souvenier from the show: 2 mugs costing only AU 5 for both. That time only left the pig and the sheep type. Fortunately I managed to get a sheep mug before it ran out.
That's all for now... gotta long week ahead...... somemore planning to go to Alice Springs.....
