Halloween in Australia

Isabel went trick-or-treating with a friend Katherine from school. It was 90 degrees and bright sun during the start of trick-or-treating. Kind of strange. Halloween also hasn't caught on to the same extent as in the U.S. The stores sometimes make half hearted efforts to put up some decorations, and I saw one or two people walking around in costume during the day.

 Sometimes the lollies (candy) handed out at houses were pathetic. At one house Isabel got a single (!) unwrapped Skittle. Excitement ensued when Isabel got what was shown below.



The amount of single (and sometimes dirty and disgusting) pieces of candy individually passed out without wrappers was pretty amazing. Would you eat that weird banana(?)-type thing if someone put that in your bag?
