Kia ora!
Is anyone going to either the festivals Shekina mentioned: Organic River Eco festival or the Parihaka peace festival? The eco fest is is jan 22weekend and parihaka is in march.

the links are www.ecofest.co.nz & www.parihaka.com

Would anyone be able to share camping accomodation or ride out there if I'm nearby the area?

Smiles,
Jules

      shekinah or anyone who's been to the river fest-
      anything you recommend I bring or know about to get ready? I'm finishing my last te reo class friday at 1ish, and then I guess I'll make my way from there, i better look into that.

      Anyone coming from the Rotorua area?

      Thanks, see y'all soon

      Smiles, Jules

          Parihaka was wonderful....really well done. Wonderful people, awesome music, beautiful crafts, interesting speakers, te reo classes, people cleaned up there trash throughout, all was wonderful, harakeke planting (including phsycially planting it, not just the $)and everyone was excited to be there with such a message of peace. Very unifying. Tons of media people wandering around, equally excited. They are deciding about the realities of continuing annually, biannually, etc. Parihaka residents even said all feedback going around was good. New Zealand, you have some wonderful stuff going around! Pave the way for the rest of the world!

    I will be performing at the Eco Fest on Saturday and possibly Sunday and look forward to meeting all you Kiwis and Wannabekiwis.

    Jules, I'll email you separately...
