This year was our first year understanding matariki ....so my friend ,our beautiful kuia headed to mount macedon on a foggy frosty 4am morning here in melbourne australia The stars away from the city lights were magical we pulled over to a clearing where we could see matariki in awe we laid out kai from waiti, waita, tupuanuku tupuarangi on our gas burner ..and tears rolled as the steam from our kai rose into the night sky .....as the karanga from our kuia finished and we began to pack up we had a kangaroo come right up too us ....a tohu indeed what an experience to share in whanau my wairua was replenished .....nga mihi matariki .......we took pics but this 1 taken by my friend sheryl kake has 3 shooting stars for the 3 of us xoxox
