and my day started with a business breakfast in town where the two main candidates for Auckland – Nikki Kaye and Jacinda Ardern.    it was an interesting debate.  (only 11 more sleeps until election day, which is a week on saturday)

we had to drop kezia off at the theatre an hour before it started so jane, esther and i went for a walk down Takapuna beach where various races were going on.  it happens every tuesday evening apparently.  and amongst the racers was some olympic medallist.  so that was nice.
