I kinda wish I'd gone out for the day - they put a on massive free BBQ for lunch and Hangi (Maori earth oven) for dinner at the local park here, along with all sorts of freebies for the kids. Mrs Paipo took our girl and some nieces and nephews down while I got caught up on some work. It is nice to see that it is slowly moving away from being a vehicle for political hijackers, instead becoming a day where we can all celebrate how lucky we are to live in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Oh, and I've got some nice stone from the Maitai River - it would be pretty cool to make a tiki from "Maitai Rock"!
