what I saw one Saturday morning


One morning ,I was woken up by loud whooshing noises just outside our window and this was what I saw when I drew the curtain of our bedroom. There is a park near our place and the balloonists used it as their launching venue.
Then later that morning we went to see a cricket game -- NZ vs England. At the cricket ground, there were more English fans ( called Barmy Army) than NZs. that you'd think that you are somewhere in England. The English fans created a great atmosphere with their singing and their funny antics.

Oh No! the Aliens have landed! they dropped their soldiers in the form of British cricket players to take over NZ!

thanks Alexis,for the alert, didn't see that connection. fortunately those aliens disguised as british cricket players went off without kidnapping anyone. I supposed they are the good aliens :D

maybe they went to back up their compatriots who were getting trashed in the Hong Kong rugby 7's hehe!

hi all, sorry it's been a while. the office had been very crazy..still is but now that luke's learning to play the ps2, the pc is sort of less harrassed so i'm just taking the opportunity. plus waiting for him to sleep takes too long, i end up sleeping earlier than him!!
the hot air balloons look nice, cannot imagine seeing it for real..
hmmm cricket..don't understand the game but i hear some people enjoy it..prefer to see people plodding in marathons/jogathons at the crack of dawn on sunday mornings..you go girls!!! you know i'm with you all the way, in mind and spirit..
gawai coming so fast! planning to do a small one at home, make sure your calendars are clear 1st june, it's sunday so no excuses...unless you went for another 10km jogging thingy and can't move another muscle.
Lin you confirmed to come over in july? we'll do a post gawai then.
