Brisbane, Australia and Riga, Latvia

Good morning all!

So we had a very productive day yesterday - a rehearsal with Latvian Voices for our collaborative performance in a few days, our own rehearsal in the vast Arena Riga and then a really fun show in the evening! Needless to say that I was ready for bed last night......

Tonight we have another rehearsal with Latvian Voices to go through some staging for the performance. It is such a huge space to sing in that I'm predicting some very expansive choreography!

As promised, here are some overdue pics from the last part of our Auz/NZ tour as well as a couple from inside the Arena Riga.

One of my buddies from Secondary School who now lives in Brisbane with his wife, Mel, and their two adorable children. It was great to catch up with them after our concert there. Also, a huge note of thanks to Mel's sister and husband for supplying the very yummy Thai food!
