Showtime!
Sydney Royal Easter Show

From Larry Rivera, About.com

Each year, as Easter swings around, children's thoughts turn to the Sydney Royal Easter Show. For the young ones, it's a time for fun rides and Easter showbag goodies. But really it's an event that many grownups also enjoy, with car racing, woodchopping contests, horseback shows, farm animals and interesting agricultural displays.
