Wrestling by the Yarra


With Mauritian music booming up the slope we found a spot to watch... and some to wrestle, especially Simon and Jasper. It was a very uneven match but that did not deter Jasper who kept it up for quite a time. All by the Yarra, after the birthday afternoon tea, after the rowing...






Ah yes, Gord did a bit of swinging along with Simon. It was a fun family time creating new variations on how to spin or swing a kid.








The kids liked to reach our vantage spot the hard way. Piper and Jasper showed how strong their fingers especially were for their weight on the bluestone wall.




There were some people who actually enjoyed the Mauritian music and there were some who liked tickling.





And all the while we were being treated to a Mauritian music and dance presentation. We had quite a vantage point. The closer seating was all taken except for the grassy spot at the top. So wresting could happen without causing trouble to anyone else.
Did you notice how dry the grass looked?
