Nara Candle Festival

Seemed like a good idea: Nara Candle Festival. Beautiful setting. Japanese gardens. Candles. Japanese food and crafts.

Pity most of Canberra felt the same way. The lines to get any food were unbelievably long and not going anywhere fast. And the crowds! Couldn't move for people. Lennox Gardens was completely over run with Canberrans :(




Got seriously worried we'd lose one or possibly all three of our children in the huge crowds.

We gave up after about half an hour. What a pity, as it should have been a fabulous night.
