Getting Excited!

The Taranaki International Arts Festival is back this August.  This festival runs every two years, and brings amazing talent and vibrancy to New Plymouth.

I can’t wait!  I have 3 pages of events that I want to go to.  The last time the festival was in town, I booked us into so many shows that Rodney was literally begging me to stay home.  So this time, I have a ‘go alone’ list and a list of things I think he might be interested in.

Some of my ‘must do’s’ include:

————————————————-

Exxopolis:

“Explore a giant world of luminous light and colour inside a walk-through inflatable sculpture as big as a football field on New Plymouth’s foreshore.”

Ummm, yes, yes I will.

Mamil:

Or Middle Aged Man In Lycra….sounds hilarious

The Speigletent

Can I book a ticket for every night in this tent?  There is a bar, and music, and this fantastic tent!

Stuff I forgot to tell my daughter

Girls night out already in the works

————————————————-

It’s because of festivals and events like these that we chose to make this awesome place our home and create this House.   I can’t wait to hear what shows our guests go to…and might make Rod winge again about going out too much…but hey, he’ll have two years to get over it.
