Rodney and Jo's Wedding

The highlight of the week was Friday when we attending Rodney and Jo's wedding.  As seniors we bought our $2.50 tickets and started our journey from the top of street going by bus to Kingsgrove, train to Wynyard and then another bus which dropped us off at Balmoral Beach (see top photo).  At 4 the bride arrived on the arm of her older brother and you could see Rodney looking unsettled.  Everything went off perfectly.  The weather was great and the sun shone on the couple at the rotundra.  The actual ceremony took 20 mins but there there were photos an then by mini buses to the Sergeant's Mess at Chowder Bay for the receiption. There was finger food passed around as entree, then lots of speeches, the main meal - duck or steak - and sweets were a variety of  mini cakes.  We caught a cab home as we oldies, didnt stay for the dancing.
On the way home as we were going through the m5 tunnel, two p platers cars were travelling at about 30mhp, throwing things at each other and swerving towards each other and back.  It was really scary.  As we came out of the tunnel, they sped off.  Meanwhile the cabbie, and I suppose others, reported them as they could have caused an accident.  Other than that it was a great day.
