A mini bunch of Wellington Chuns gathered together at Uncle Ray's place today to welcome cousin Julia back onto home turf and to show her Irish husband Paddy what we Chuns are good at doing...EATING!!! We managed to munch our way through 3 different types of soup and bread, jook, bacon & egg pie, cheese muffins, chicken, roast duck and BBQ pork followed by homemade waffles (courtesy of Uncle Ray and Aunty Shirl who were flipping waffles at break-neck speed from their own waffle makers!) plus a host of other yummy sweet items to accompany copious amounts of tea - ahhh, it was all SO good!
Julia and Paddy's baby Bella was not in the least fazed by the Chun paparazzi that are usually present at these gatherings and sat calmly eating her jook like all Irish-Chinese-Maori babies should. Less than a year old and already she is so well travelled.
Julia, Paddy & Bella - enjoy the rest of your tiki tour and we hope that you will help to keep the NZ Chuns in regular contact with the Aussie Chuns. Maybe you'd like to organise a gathering of the clan in Australia sometime!
