Sydney night life - loud and proud!

Hard to believe that we're finally here in Sydney! in fact I'm at Pitt Street using their free Wifi with the loud 'live' night life outside. Wow! are these Aussies loud! thought to come out to blog as everyone in my family has turned in for the night and taking it easy after a long busy week.

And so thankful yesterday for the Book Launch of our 2nd limited edition book "Mount Vaea and the tears of Apa'ula". I have a lot of people to ask God to bless for their amazing support starting with the centre manager who agreed to the idea and did a wonderful job of arranging the day,and thankfully the Board agreed. 

The two supervisors who with the assistance of the other amazing faiaoga made it really special with the children's performances and loved seeing our little one enjoying herself with in learning the sasa, a neat Samoan solo (poem), a fan dance, etc. so beautiful to witness.

Then we had my 'birth church' minister bless the book followed by Samoan protocol speeches with my husband MC'ing the day and the children waiting ever so patiently to eat which we did with a wonderful umu (earth oven using hot rocks) by the young men of the church. It was such a blessing to see our second book out just 2 months after we launched the first.

Have started on working on a couple of writing projects for children's books but also considering to start publishing the different genre that I've been writing i.e. performance plays as there are so many different genre and stories to tell.

Again, I feel so blessed to be here in celebration and thankful of so many things and also checking out book promoting here in Sydney too. With a lot of faith, you never know what can happen! ...
