re: ANZAC Day
Colleen Lambourne thank you John for telling us of yours and Bob's wonderful experience . It was so lovely knowing you were there while we watched on the TV coverage. An amazing experience for you both and one you will never forget. I shed a tear as well when you all sang Pokerekereana and also Now is the Hour. Thought John Key gave two great speeches. Safe travels home to NZ xx
