Tutus on tour in TImaru

We had a girls night out on Thursday. The ballet was fab, and we feel very fortunate to be able to go! They did Verdi variations to start with, a whole bunch of traditional ballet stuff, although enlivened by some interesting exits and entrances as the dancers competed with one another for stage time and applause, very funny.
The second part was Pinocchio. I hadn't realized what a morality tale the original is, but wonderfully danced and presented. Just marvelous.
Zach had his first football 'thing' on Saturday, a get together with the team and coach before the season. Usually the team gets together for the first game, and we certainly haven't heard anything about Hannah's team yet.
