Daffodil Day

DD1Yesterday marked Daffodil Day in New Zealand. The days aim is to rase awareness, and funds for the Cancer Society. NZ has a stat seeing 1 in 3 of us being affected by cancer. No good.

Walking through town,we came across a wonderfully assembled field of the daffodils (pretend ones).

Last weekend (from memory – ive been struck down with the flu…perhaps man flu even) we found ourselves amongst a gathering of protestors, protesting against the Israeli ground invasion of Gaza.

I think we got there just before it really warmed up volume wise. Here’s a few shots.

As I write this post, I hear an announcement over the radio that Israel has agreed to a 12 hour ceasefire (after disagreeing to a week long one). Any war is a terrible thing. This one seems to have too many of its deaths inflicted on children.
