Pictures from the Northwest Girlchoir tour to Newfoundland, Canada where we sang at Festival 500 in St. John's.
Dial-up and slow-connections be warned, there are many pictures here. Also... it's mostly just pictures of us making silly faces. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Elana, Lily, and Lani reading Cosmo in the airport. It promised 100% naked men. There were none. What a rip-off.
By the way, don't make any comments about the matching OBNOXIOUS shirts. We had to wear them, okay? We've already suffered enough.
Lily, Lani and I... we were really bored in the airport.
Elana was bored too so she joined in the fun.
Um?
I borrowed Lani's glasses and it turns out I'd make a really good emo person.
Lily using the phone on the plane. Or pretending to. Whatever. Why did they let us sit next to each other?
The next day! Look at Lani go! And check out the green NWGC shirts clashing with the NWGC red anoraks. This is not high fashion, folks.
Elana and I hold the (boring) Washington State flag with Dwight (our accompanist) and Sara (our director) behind us.
Geri looks cute while Lily eats my head. This sort of sums up our trip...
The campus pond! From left to right it's Lily, Lani, Elana, Melanie (me), and Robyn.
An attractive picture of Lily taken by yours truly! It's a miracle!
Lily is laughing at me and I'm... surveying the pond. Yeah.
We got bored during a concert. Me, Geri and Lily. Ohhhh man.
Lily talked to Dave at night when I was going to sleep so I would put in my headphones and cover my eyes. This is what I looked like.
Lani and I are awesome.
She'll love this picture, I know it.
De Boca en Boca! SO MUCH LOVE. BUY THEIR CDS!
Ars Nova! ALSO A LOT OF LOVE. Ask me for the CD!
Lani and I as we prepare to go on our whale and bird tour.
A cute picture of Elana. We all felt okay for the first 5 minutes of the boat ride and then it went downhill...
Puffins!
All those little specks are birds. Fear for your life... or something.
SO MUCH BIRD CRAP.
Birds are not my favorite animals and they were everywhere.
Near the most easterly point of North America. The lighthouse that's there... pretty.
Dacy surveying the Atlantic.
Lily, Geri, Lani and myself in front of the ocean.
A big cannon from World War II. We decided it's very phallic.
A "Lion King"-ish moment up on the hill.
Trying to be artistic and failing. Sigh...
Geri's too cute for her own good.
Lily and Geri wearing the various items they bought for their siblings.
We decided to pose dramatically.
I don't know what we were doing here, except that Lily is ridiculous.
This time Elana's ridiculous.
Ally, this is for you.
The church that we performed our WoM concert in. Very pretty.
In front of our favorite local pub (hahaha)...
Scenic St. John's... sort of.
More goofing off.
Awwww.
Us posing as the WWII statues. Yay!
Before our concert! I love this picture! :)
Geri and Lily are so crazy.
After our concert... with my awesome green shirt that says "Newfoundlanders are so friendly!" Also, check out the slip. Cool people sleep in their slips. :P
We're so classy. Us is clearly the classiest publication there is in existence.
The stadium that we sang out finale concert in.
Oh my god yay! From left to right, me, Luimar, Geri, Flor, Alberto (!!!), and Lily! I miss them so much!
The pond at night...
The morning of the finale after our final performance with Sara.
In a bathroom at the stadium...
Woah lots of people to sing in front of.
Flag ceremony. Hmm.
Oh! This is Francisco, the hottest man ever. You can't really tell because he's singing and we took this picture from very far away, but trust us. He's amazing.
The adult choir singing. Those were just the adults. There were about the same amount of youth singers there. Lots of singers. :)
After the concert with Maria and Alberto. *sniff*
At the after-party with Carmen, another awesome director who is in charge of Francisco's choir. Hehehe.
With Nate the Australian. He's a homie.
And finally, in Toronto on our way home after a 10-hour layover. Good times.
That's it for now. More pictures might come later. Goodnight!
