Yes, this time it was Yo&#8217;s BD party at WT. Not on that day but we even following Australian tradition to celebrate in weekend.</p>
<p>As usual, I was having three parties together so told Yo that I will not join the party. I arrived the party as I change my mind and found that I was the first. We collected everything like food, cake, crackers, gifts etc. Lastly realize that we forgot candles for cake but that is fine b&#8217;case that how fun arrives as u come to at last that something missed.</p>
<p>Initially was feeling like party gonna be boring and we gonna slept soon. But slowly it takes pace with music and nearly all invited friends and friend&#8217;s friend make it amazing, specially at the cake time as u can see in video.  Cooked Thai deices was hard to understand but looks fabulous. Specially their way of eating it. They take everything in cabbage leaf, fold it and eat. Nice n Different!!!</p>
<p>Not writing much, shows in video and pics&#8230;.</p>
<p>Have fun !!!<br />
P.</p>

<p>Ya, that was my last weekend. At Pre Garba Night. Traditional Gujarati Dance Festival.<img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-149" title="Me in Traditional Dress" src="http://pranavshah81.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/040920096651.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="Me in Traditional Dress" width="300" height="225" /> Its alway exiting to wear traditional dresses and dance for long time and forgeting the rest world. It was nice bit cold night but perfect for Garba occation.</p>
<p>This was much decent and less crowdy garba then usual one. Music was mile stone and uncomparably amazing. There are many sound tracks were there which are very popular in Baroda.</p>
<p>There are many different kind of dancing were perform by people from different cities but overall it was nice mixture. Chance to even learn new styles. Its like one started, you cant stop it for a while. 2-3 hours dancing constantly unnoticeable.</p>
<p>I be there with my friend after the job and it was nice experience as even met with many old friends and dance with them for long. So, overall unforgettable moment.</p>
<p>Cheers!!</p>
<p>P.</p>

<p>Initiated by the local Chinese community to share their rich cultural heritage and celebrate Australia&#8217;s 1988 Bicentenary, the Chinese Garden is the result of a close bond of friendship and cooperation between the sister cities of Sydney and Guangzhou in Guangdong Province, China.</p>
<p>The garden was designed and built by Chinese landscape architects and gardeners. Similar to every classical Chinese garden, traditional principles govern the use of four key elements of water, plants, stone and architecture. Together, these four elements combine to create perfect balance.</p>
<p>The art of Chinese garden design began in imperial parks during the Zhang dynasty 3000 years ago. Later they flourished on a smaller scale in the private gardens of China&#8217;s rich and powerful. The Chinese Garden of Friendship at Darling Harbour is a scaled-down version of a typical private garden from this era.</p>
<p>Chinese gardens differ from western-style gardens in that there are no planted flowerbeds or manicured lawns. Instead, wild aspects of nature are recreated in artfully designed landscapes that feature waterfalls, mountains, lakes and forests.</p>
<p>Exploring a Chinese garden is a journey of discovery: there are many details to be observed and only a part of the garden is visible at a time. Follow the serpentine walkways as they lead you through private courtyards and traditional pagoda-style pavilions.</p>
<h3 style="background-color:#f0f0f0;">At the Garden</h3>
<p>Step into another world and experience the natural beauty, architecture and culture of one of the only authentic Chinese gardens outside of Asia.</p>
<p><strong><a title="Enjoy traditional pastries, dim sims and steamed pork buns at The Teahouse " rel="lightbox[ig]" href="http://www.darlingharbour.com/content/library/images/high/c3ce9a01-bbda-9236-56bfe3c478783fae.jpg"><img title="Enjoy traditional pastries, dim sims and steamed pork buns at The Teahouse " src="http://www.darlingharbour.com/content/library/images/medium/c3ce9a01-bbda-9236-56bfe3c478783fae.jpg" border="0" alt="Enjoy traditional pastries, dim sims and steamed pork buns at The Teahouse" align="left" /></a>The Teahouse<br />
</strong>The Teahouse offers the perfect place to contemplate the spirit of the Chinese Garden.</p>
<p>A range of traditional pastries, dim sims, gow gees, and steamed pork buns are on the menu in the Teahouse. Naturally, there is also an extensive range of Chinese teas including:</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">- Jasmine Tea &#8211; flower tea with a delicate fresh scent<br />
- Shou Mei (Old man&#8217;s eyebrows) &#8211; Green tea light in colour and aroma<br />
- Shui Hsen (Water Fairy) &#8211; Oolong tea with refreshing qualities<br />
- Tieh-Kuan-Yin (Iron Goddess of Mercy) &#8211; Oolong tea with a light fragrance<br />
- Pu-Erh &#8211; Black tea with an earthy flavour</p>
<p>In addition, the Teahouse offers a range of beverages and light meals, including coffee, English tea, gourmet sandwiches, soup and salads, and a delectable range of sweet treats.</p>
<p>The Teahouse is open daily from 10 am to 4.30 pm (closed Good Friday and Christmas Day).</p>

</strong>Penjing &#8211; quite literally translates to mean a miniature landscape (jing) in a pot (pen) &#8211; is the Chinese version of Bonsai.</p>
<p>There are three distinct categories of this art form:</p>
<ul>
<li>- Tree Penjing (shumu penjing)<br />
- Landscape Penjing (shanshui penjing)<br />
- Water-and-Land Penjing (shuihan penjing)</li>
</ul>

<p><strong><a title="The Jade Carriage is on display at the Chinese Garden" rel="lightbox[ig]" href="http://www.darlingharbour.com/content/library/images/high/c3cef11a-f585-f9a9-df20699e04b9bf1b.jpg"><img title="The Jade Carriage is on display at the Chinese Garden" src="http://www.darlingharbour.com/content/library/images/medium/c3cef11a-f585-f9a9-df20699e04b9bf1b.jpg" border="0" alt="The Jade Carriage is on display at the Chinese Garden" align="left" /></a>Jade Bridal Carriage<br />
</strong>The Jade Bridal Carriage was provided to the Chinese Garden of Friendship as a gift from the Queen Victoria Building in 2006. It is believed the carriage is from Guangdong Province in southern China and it is the only one of its kind outside of China.</p>
<p>Used by Chinese Emperors in ancient times, this traditional jade bridal carriage is extremely ornate and typical of past Chinese dynasties. Utilising more than 300 tonnes of raw jade, approximately 100 artists were involved in creating this masterwork. The carriage is elaborately carved with dragons, phoenix and fairies, featuring as symbols of luck, prestige and authority, as well as two ornate fans symbolising royal dignity. Two mannequins in traditional dress and a sceptre are also on display.</p>
<p>This traditional jade bridal carriage is on display in the entry hall of the Chinese Garden.</p>
<p>This garden was so close to the place where I live but never know about it. Even not knowing that it is such a huge. I was mind blowing experience nd amaze by the natural beauty. Must Watch!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p> </p>
<p><strong>I </strong>have been to Easter Show last Sunday on 19th April 2009.  It was really nice show then what I have thought about it.  It has so many things to offer, I can not belive that this could be such a large in scale.</p>
<p><strong>The Place: I</strong>t was held at Olympic Stadium at Sydney. It has covered large area nearby stadium. Many companies have made their stall there. It was seem like &#8220;Mela&#8221; in India. I have been there with my friends.</p>
<p><strong>Attractions: T</strong>here were lot of different things to see and that include long list, majorly like Wood cutting, Shearing Sheep, Flower Show, Fashion Show etc. Apart from that also have many companies stall like Woolworth, Magazines, Kabab etc.  It was majorly divided in few parts like Children&#8217;s section, Animal section, Company Stall section and many more.</p>
<p><strong>Majorly: I </strong>majorly like bike show, car show, shearing sheep, wood cutting show. We have spend whole day there but still it was not enought to cover everything. There were really beautifull flower places and amazing fashion show run.</p>
<p>Everthing was so beautifull and well managed.  It shows that how much hard work they people have done for it. It also shows that Australian community always find this kind of celebrations at different pt of time to make their life culturly awared. It also shows that pubs, bars, club life is at its place but such even life make its important in our life.</p>
<p>So, as per my view point its must watch show.</p>
