Show me the sideshow alley rides (and the baby animals)
Shire events
The Mossman Show is on this weekend, and five-year-old Imogen says she is most looking forward to the showrides - and the baby-animal petting zoo.
Her sister Ashleigh, 3, is probably more interested in her magic wand than anything else right now, however.
Due to the casting of many spells with her wand while we are chatting, Ashleigh has not got much to say about what she is looking forward to most at the Show - which is on this Sunday and Monday - but her sisters Imogen and Maddie, 12, have more of a plan.
Immy says her favourite attractions are in the sideshow alley.
“The rides,” she says.
“I like all of them.
“The jumping castle and the scary ones.
“Bumping cars, I like those ones too.”
Maddie is more of a farm-animal fan.
“I hope it’s fun and exciting, and there are lots of cows in it,” she says.
Thousands of Douglas Shire residents and travellers are expected to enjoy the popular event this weekend, which will also include woodchopping, equestrian, a reptile zoo, pig racing, dog jumping, art displays and more.
Mossman Show is on Sunday, July 19, and Monday, July 20, at Coronation Park, Jack Street, Mossman.
