A journey of memories

Sunday the 2nd of May  was no ordinary Sunday. Five of James’ friends have finally graduated, each from a different faculty,  Law, Pharmacy, Education, Arts, and Science – each one of them were in their pretty gowns and colourful hoods. We took some group photos in the studio in the morning and it was very enjoyable. There were also  formal shots, silly poses, tossing of the hat etc and everyone had a lot of laughs.

We then departed for Auckland Domain for some outdoor photos, the weather was great! Blue skies, bright sunlight and a little bit of cloud made all the flowers seems very fresh and colourful. We began with some formal looking group portraits.

Then we tried different things…Here was an idea of getting them to march along the way in a line, the end result seems rather interesting!!

Now all the attention is on James’ girlfriend…

From left to right, Commerce – Orange,  Law – Blue,  Arts – Pink, Pharmarcy – Light Blue, Science – Dark Blue.

After sunset, everyone was hungry so we found a nice  Japanese restaurant in Newmarket called Don Don Rikka. The food was very nice with unique names like , Ninja, Sumo, Sakura Chicken etc.  It also came with nice dessert and all the food were served with this funny ground sesame which James  spent half of the time grinding the seeds.

…the Sakura Chicken Dish with big portion of rice underneath!!

…and the  sesame seeds that were fun to grind!! The expression tells it all!

Another eventful day to be remembered!
