today has been all about performances
this evening kezia was in a 2 hour concert at a local theatre as part of a choir backing a famous kiwi singer
it was very good and our first official christmas engagement of the year
and my day started with a business breakfast in town where the two main candidates for Auckland β Nikki Kaye and Jacinda Ardern. it was an interesting debate. (only 11 more sleeps until election day, which is a week on saturday)
at lunch i went to find out about a pre-pay credit card for our english friends who are visiting in december and saw the legendary auckland santa has been erected.
and itβs starting to get nice and warm. so christmas is well on its way!
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.
