Christmas is just around the corner, and communities all across Cairns are coming together for their own local Carols by Candlelight evenings. My first Carols assignment was in the beach side suburb of Yorkeys Knob, a fifteen minute drive north of Cairns. I arrived before dark, so there wasn't much candle action happening. I walked around and just looked for pictures.

The emcee announced a Cook islands Church group were to perform some traditional songs as well as some carols. They were amazing! The lead singer, a woman with an absolutely amazing voice, took my breath away, her voice carrying throughout the entire park (and surrounding streets, I'm sure) with amazing strength and pitch. The group sung two or three wonderful Island songs in what was a hair-standing-on-end type of moment.
Their voices and vocal delivery made my night.
