Anzac Day at Gallipoli

ANZAC COVE

This is the site where we arrive at on April 24 with our Kiwi tour party.

We visited the site at the start of our tour of Turkey and watched the Turkish officials setting up this place to accommodate the 10000 people who will attend this once in a lifetime ceremony. Anzac Cove is much smaller than I originally imagined. There are many grave sites scattered up and down the narrow coastline. Each site is beautifully maintained and this is a credit to the people of Turkey who are also extremely friendly to us Kiwis. It's amazing to think that so many lives were lost and that so many soldiers who died were never found and lie unforgotten in the hills around this special place. This place is a must for all New Zealanders and I feel extremely honoured to not only represent my Grandfather Andrew James Willocks but all Anzac men who fought so bravely in a battle that was poorly planned and a failure before they even landed
 Hope some of you can watch the TV live coverage on ANZAC Day remembering that over here in Turkey we are nine hours behind NZ time. If not why not attend the RSA service at the Temuka Domain. Least We Forget.

Paris

Hi from Paris. We flew direct from chch to paris stopping briefly at Singapore and Frankfurt on route. We arrived feeling quite tired after some 30 hours of travel. The weather in the past few days has been really stunning which had enabled my family and i to take in all the touristy sites. Yesterday i watched the Paris marathon and felt envious of all the excitement the runners gave as they ran past us at the 5km mark. We have used the underground trains (the Metro) to get around this amazing city. Tomorrow we fly up to Instanbul to begin our tour of Gallipoli and Turkey. I will blog some pictures of Galliploi and send Mrs Fuller some video to show at assembly. All the best. GW This is the famous Effel Tower and today we waited over two hours to get to the top. Amazing views!

Happy Easter Everyone

After a busy term at Temuka Primary School we hope everyone will have a refreshing holiday break together with family and friends. 

This blog entry is my test to see if these posts go live from my iPad. Fingers crossed. GW
