And we heard the band at a concert in our hotel ( the lineup included double bass , guitars , much miscellaneous percussion - - and two clarinets ! Going abroad for four months each year made regular work rather difficult , but each year she has taught up until late June , and ended by organizing a concert where her recorder and percussion students showed off their new-found skills . Also , for a change , we have decided to work backwards in time . Finally they caught the ferry back to Wellington and drove home . Pam joined the recorder society in Palo Alto , attended a workshop conducted by a famous American recorder virtuoso , and played in a concert just before she left . The wind and sea were with us on the way out , and we hoped for a change - - in vain . While Dan was working Anna took Pam on the ferry to Manly and then on a nice bush walk back towards Sydney , where they came across some ancient aboriginal rock drawings . He caught up with many old friends , ate numerous lunches ( everyone eats sushi , which is great because Ian loves it ) , gave guest lectures in Calgary and Edmonton , hiked in the Rockies , and went to a concert by John Renbourne , the old 1960s British folkie , still going strong . With Ian she did the world-famous Crypt Lake hike , which starts with a refreshing boat trip across the windswept waters of Waterton Lake to land on the other side , climbs steeply past Hell Roaring Falls , carries on for miles and miles up a glaciated side valley , switchbacks interminably and very steeply up to a 20 metre tunnel in the rock through which you have to crawl ( leave your claustrophobia behind on this trip ! We took the ferry across to nearby Bowen Island to visit Shelagh and David , Ian 's M.Sc . They bring excellent teachers out from Europe and elsewhere , and the week 's highlight was a concert given by a talented young recorder virtuoso from Venezuela ( who was also one of the tutors ) . We took the ferry to Sydney , did the tourist things , and went on a lovely long walk ( two or three hours ) around the harbour shore ending up at Manly , with stunning harbour views . Mum was n't going to get stuck inside on the ferry this time , oh no . There was a huge crowd of boats out to see them off , and since there was no wind at all everything was moving very slowly , with a languid , festive air .
