Sunny Spring window reflections at Bayfair

So I had one of those moments yesterday at work when I popped out at lunchtime to one of the local shopping malls to buy a few things. You see a few months back I purchased online what the auction stated was a brand new pair of unworn shoes, said shoes turned up and looked as they were touted to be and when I put them on at home they were comfortable and looked very good. By the time I got to work the lining had begun to unpeel from the inside and by morning tea when I returned to my desk from a short walk I noticed the heels had come off - so much for a brand new pair of unworn shoes.

After nipping out to buy a new pair I was walking back to my car and noticed this reflection in some of the mirror windows next to the parking lot and thought it it was pretty cool that not only was it a lovely sunny Spring day but that a guy on a cart was visible driving past a load of trolleys that were being lined up to be pushed back near the entrance.

Hope your week has gone well, for more weekend reflections click here :-)

That IS a good reflection - it lifts the building, doesn't it? And I agree - almost like a mural.

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money). My research found that: "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years. This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally? I actually th...

Hail

Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck. Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too. Linking up with Through my lens , Tuesday Treasures , My corner of the world , Wordless Wednesday .
