On 2 July, Barb Tyler will cross the ditch to stay with her little sister in Auckland. It has been three years since Barb was last in Auckland, and she is looking forward to visiting again. They have planned to go down to Miranda to watch the godwits at the Shorebird Centre, and to take a dip at the Miranda Hot Pools. On Saturday 3 July, they will drive from Miranda to Waiuku to run in the Xterra off road race. They are doing the short course, 6km, and will be starting at 10.30am. They have to finish by around 12pm to get back into town for "My El Jay" at the Gus Fisher Gallery which is a public programme happening at 1pm when there will be people wearing their El Jay clothing, and talking about their experiences with Gus Fisher's clothes.
