Ukulele Fest

What a fun Aussie experience!  Ukulele fest kicked off tonight with free group lessons.  


There were plenty of ukes to borrow, so I picked a cute pink one of course.  About 200 experienced and novice players all played together outside under the palm trees.  They even put little stickers on the beginner ukuleles to help teach everyone how to play.  By the end of the hour, we were all playing along to lots of familiar songs.  


I just might have to buy one of these cute little guys! And if I want lessons, I just have to turn on Skype.  Since the ukulele world is small, one guy from the US actually Skypes lessons all around the world. Finished the night with a few hours of performances from Aussie and American ukulele players - so much fun!
