Ponsonby Market Day 20101204

It was a full on day yesterday, we have done a lot.

I woke up at 8:30, washed the clothes – ah, I mean put the clothes into the washing machine. Then at 10:00 I went for my second class of hot yoga. Again I sweated through and was completely wet. How bad it was? hmmm, I have to out some junk papers under my bum when I was driving home, and afterwards the papers were all wet.

At 14:00 I went to meet KK and then she drove both of us out to Ponsonby for the market day. We walked around a bit and met up with Mary. Oh, and yes, KK took her dad’s camera with her.


Later Jason came along too, but we were looking at dresses and so he went off for a while on his own, haha. After a while Sally and Tony called, so we went to meet them at the Christmas tree. They were there with Sally’s mum Linda and 6 year old Ben.

Ben is a very good dog, even Jason who doesn’t particularly like dog played with him. We took Ben with us and walked further more, then put him back into the car, and went for Gelato.

Where Kat, who was supposed to be here earlier but went onto the wrong bus, joined us for a short while before she went off for dinner with her friends. She bought a cool camera with her.


Soon after Gelato, we had decided to have an early dinner. Jason picked the Crib. The man drank some cocktails and face turned red.

At 20:30, the sky was still bright. People were singing on the street, in the restaurant. We walked our way towards the tree.

We didn’t go under the tree at once because the lights are barely visible under the sun, so we lined up to call Santa. Jason’s wish is a really good one, a must watch!

The sky started to turn darker, so we entered the tree and soon we had some bean bags. This year the tree has more interesting colours and patterns.


Afterwards we went to Franklin street to watch the light decorations, and our cars (except Jason’s one) were on that street. We took Ben with us to the tree and also Franklin street, so many kids played with him. He likes kids.

At about 22:00 12 left and our day ended. Went home, shower and sleep.

What a wonderful day!
