Christchurch has come to life in the last 2 months with all kinds of shows, activities, festivals and celebrations. In December, the Christchurch City Council mails out a booklet to all households which outlines the myriad of activities going on in and around the city. So off to the city center we went today where we enjoyed some food cart sausages, arts and crafts markets and some street performers.
Today is also Waitangi Day, a celebration of the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi which you can read about here. We happened upon a performance of music and storytelling by a Maori group. They also performed a haka which we can share with you. While W naps, Miss M and Mike are at the neighborhood park enjoying a game of cricket and net ball. We hope you are having a good day too.
Good photos. I wish I could see the Maori performers in full screen on the computer.
