I have been told it gets cold in the winter here. I remember the fog that didn't lift until lunchtime, and wearing a couple o layers of clothes when I lived here about 20 years ago, but I must say, it's way colder. I am still getting used to the grass crunching under my feet early mornings when I go to get light for our run. I keep thinking I use get the treadmill going again. Then there is the defrosting your car to drive to work. It takes me longer to clear the ice and frost off the car than it does to drive to the office. This morning I heard the creaking sound when I opened the car door as it was starting to freeze shut. I had to take a couple of shots.
We were really excited when the Burelli Singers from Brisbane came to town. My niece is in one of the junior choirs in Brisbane, so it was nice to get to know the group. Kawea’s choir Auckland Boys Choir. They sang in the Auckland Town Hall in the middle of the city. Nauvoo and Arama came to support also. We had a bit of a shop down Queen Street then helped out with the dinner for the choir members. The ABC boys did really well. I really enjoyed the Burelli Choir, as it reminded me of when I went on tour to the USA, and brought back some wonderful emotions hearing their music being sung. Tears welled up in my eyes several times hearing the parts, the emotions coming through the music. This was my passion growing up. Music was and still is my passion. Sooo fantastic. I was reminded of how I would love to have a choir like that run out here in Rodney District. One day…
