Photo of Laurie and Bailey at the Opening of Floriade I was privileged to attend the opening of Floriade on Friday 10th September so I can tell you on good authority that it will be well worth your time to visit. The flowers are beautiful and the planned entertainment is sure to impress.

This is a photo of my son and I meeting and chatting to a ‘flower’ on the day.

Floriade was officially opened by Andrew Barr, MLA with an acknowledgment to country read by Aunty Agnus from the Ngunnawal Elders Council and Kristy Hinze dressed in a beautiful gown bedecked in hand sewn fresh rose petals, it was amazing and she is even more beautiful in person. I’ve included some photos below.
