Ambury Farm Day

If a picture really is worth a 1000 words then there are 14000 in this post alone! We went to the Ambury Farm day a few weeks back and had a great time. The Farm is one of the Auckland Regional Council Parks and most of the activities were free to do.


What blew me away was the huge diversity of families that were at the park. I was waiting for Les and the kids to do the Horse and carriage ride and got to stand right beside the way in for the vast majority of people. There was a huge number of nationalities. There were all socio-economic groups and age brackets represented. There were blended families and single parent families. There were grandparents and friends and so on and so forth. I would have loved to have set up a little booth offering to take and email photos of the families to them as they came in.... the variety would have rocked!
