A Violin Serenade at Dawn Over Coromandel Penninsula, New Zealand
My mother and I hiked up to the temple at the top of Mana Retreat Center on New Zealand's North Island. We removed our shoes and entered into a hush. A man was removing his violin and asked if we minded if he played a bit. We shook our heads violently no, and smiled. He serenaded us as the sun rose over the Coromandel Peninsula, a time I will never forget.
