Every 8 weeks or so I meet with a group of 5 other women. Usually we go to a city café and chat over a long lunch. Our ages range from thirty - sixty and our countries of birth cover Fiji, Japan, New Zealand, Scotland and Australia. We are from diverse backgrounds but we all have one think in common. We've all had cancer - one colon cancer, one lymphoma, one brain tumor and three breast cancers.
This month being school holidays we decided to meet at the home of one of the women who lives on Waiheke Island . Several of the women have school age children and they would be able to come along for the day. Waiheke is a nice relaxing 40 minute ferry ride from Auckland, the air is clean and the atmosphere relaxed. We all took along something to share for lunch and with so many nationalities we had an interesting mix of food. I took along a Greek Salad which is almost Australian!
