NZ International Arts Festival - Day 10

Day 10 (Sunday) kids reaction to the family friendly (dance/movement/percussive) Echoa was brilliant, one child says "what are they doing?" when 2 of the dancers embrace and another says in a loud voice "they're hugging" - cue audience laughter -infectious giggles permeate throughout the performance - followed this up with the interactive experience of Apollo 13 sitting at a NASA console helping guide the Apollo 13 shuttle back to earth - squeezed in live Phoenix soccer game ( great win) then onto to the Pacific Blue Festival Club to see Irya's Playground (the band who has played this week on-stage with Cirkus Cirkörs circus show Inisde Out at the Opera House) great way to chill out and reflect on the day
