We hadn't been to the Perth Show yet which is on around September every year, mainly as I thought it was more for kids and not a very big show/fair because it's at the Claremont showgrounds. Which I'd mistakenly thought was just the obvious grassy area but actually has lots of buildings and other grounds around the edge, where the majority of the show is located.
So mainly for Logan and due to not being able to go next year we decided to give it a go. Knowing it was going to be busy being a public holiday we headed there for the start around 9am, to beat the crowds and Logan is like us and generally better in the mornings.

So where's the dive tanks Dad? |
And was pleasantly surprised to see how much was there, from shows tailored to certain interests, various stalls and several animal enclosures. Obvious you might think with it being a "show" but I hadn't figured the whole animal thing was going to be so prominent, pretty similar to the Royal Show in Toronto. But that was good as Logan has definitely picked up on our interest in animals and one of the best areas was a huge Aviary with a lot of loud and crazy birds!

And Yes, that was a Giant Pigeon (no really it says it on the cage) |
So overall a good morning and Logan loved seeing all the different animals (although doesn't look it in this photo) and did well with the crowds too. Then as he was having enough around 1pm it was the right time to head off as the hoards were heading in and we had sampled Donuts and Candy Floss too, so job done!
More photos on Picasa and Janice was really there, but for a change I ended up in all the photos :)
