We chanced the rainy weather today in Sydney and went and watched this production of Wind in the Willows in the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens. Chris' sister bought us tickets in the Kris Kringle for Christmas.
What a great show it was. Lots of songs, laughs and a few walks for the little ones to stretch their legs thrown in. (And hardly any scary audience participation, in which I nearly always get singled out for the crowd's entertainment. There was a close call with Badger, but he found a different victim at the very last second. Phew!)
Caleb was quite mesmerized throughout, and Jemima's interest came and went a little, but she was generally pretty good for a not-yet-two year old. Caleb chose Moley to have a photo with (interestingly, the character who was least "out there"- I think the others were little overwhelming for him). Jemima was desperate to "say hello, rabbit man", and when we got there, all she could do was look at her apron. Starstruck. (Skirt by Idey Spidey by the way).
