Willi's wet arrival

Well it had to change and just in time for Willi and Robert's arrival from the south island.

Wellington's weird weather is again here, unpredictable, windy and wet. But we make the most of it as it changes every half hour. Tonight we managed to get St James for the Ballet without getting too wet, and it was  an excellent production, small orchestra and modest staging, but excellent dancing as always. Italian Francesco Ventriglia is shown to be a good artistic director and was sitting not far from us in the stalls. He looked quite happy.

Before the ballet we had a light meal at Floriditas which was enough for the evening. Robert and Willi are both careful eaters, as you have to be when travelling. Robert is an IT man and had the latest Samsung  Galaxy phone and it certainly looked great. I am sorely tempted to change over for my next up-grade, as without Steve Jobs, Apple may have seen better days.

Tomorrow I am talking ECK at Clyde Quay School, and later I'll catch up with Willi and Robert at Te Papa and take them to the Newtown fair. Then later we will all go dancing at Thistle Hall. 
Another big day.

The Interfaith talk went very well and all were impressed with the Eckankar presentation.
It sure was a big day and it is not over yet. 

The Fair was gigantic and nearly too hot to enjoy. We walked and had a meal at  Pranah and bumped into Lesley and Wayne, Norida and Jack, and managed to survive.

Now for the DANSS tonight...
