Anzac day!!
Started off pretty early, we biked around to Christey's at about 9am. We were all heading to her cultural festival where we were running the NZ tent. It was probably the hottest day we've had in ages and we had to entertain children and their parents all day. We had NZ music playing loud all day and had posters and calendars and other bits and pieces from NZ for everyone to look at. Christey made heaps of Maori sticks, so we spent a lot of time teaching the children and adults that (they seemed to love it). The festival finished up around 3pm, and from there we all headed back to Christeys to drop off our gear. Around 6 we headed into the local bar Tin's Hall because they were celebrating Anzac day with a BBQ of NZ lamb and Aussie beef, and also music from both all night. The Lamb was amazing, it's been so long!!! (Danielle loved it!) We ended up drinking NZ wine all night and had a really good time, singing old classics and dancing around. The night ended on a sour note though, I lost my jacket on the train on the way home (I'm pretty sure someone walked off with it) and in the pockets off my jacket were my bloody new PSP, cellphone and my house keys. Hopefully all will be replaced with my travel insurance, but it is just annoying for the time being. Apart from the drama at the end an all round great day of NZ food, music, drinks and people.

You made it sound better than it ws glen!!! it was horrible coz we were drunk and had no way to get into our house so had to taxi to christeys to stay the night and then had to call in sick the next day for work coz couldnt move as would have been sick and had to try and find lost stuff and go to police and lost property and get a new key to our apartment!! a horrible day on monday!!!!
But we are over it now.
I thought i'd spare them all that drama!!!
Hey there Glenny,
I've become a blogger!!!
Although unlike you I have no dramas to report. Although it went bad, it's cool that they celebrated that kind of thing in JApan. Hope your having an awesome time!!!

I know I am the worst emailer in the world, however it was thanks to you that I have got into this wee blogging think. Isn't it great, although mine is pretty boring at the mo.
Sounds like you guys are having a great time, I'm lovingall the pictures! Can be rude and ask how you put links onto your blog, I'm dumb and cant figureit out.
