Lunar Rhapsody

This weekend there was the biggest and closest full moon of 2012 and I was pretty damn excited.
Unfortunately the thick clouds that blanketed the city ruined any chance of a good moon-viewing/howling last night, but tonight it was a big, perfect, milky circle. We hopped in the car and chased it all the way to New Brighton Pier.

In honour of the weird moon vibes floating around, dear Alex made a moon mix for everyone.
