A walk around Whangarei Falls


This is one place we enjoyed seeing. The Whangarei Falls is just out of the city - very popular spot and well organized as we found when we arrived there as parking attendants showed us where to park our car and were friendly and helpful.


We decided to walk around from the start to finish which took us roughly about 20 minutes along a very easy loop walkway past the impressive waterfall.


And as you can see someone wanted his photo taken in front of the falls.....

Beautiful falls. I love waterfalls and walking into them is one of my favorite things to do. (I used to say hiking into them.... but now if there isn't a boardwalk or a good path I don't do it, so I guess walking is a better term). Is that guy photo-bombing the beautiful falls someone you know ;>)???

I love waterfalls too, and even if i am not very fit for hiking i really struggled just to see them here. And in my last escapade last April we had been to 4 waterfalls, in one we crossed 4 wide rivers and 2 streams. If that is not love enough, i don't know how to call it, haha! Where is Whangarei in NZ?

Triple falls. Waterfalls have a charm of their own. Thanks for sharing this.

I'm surprised there's so much water in the falls already Amy. You must have had a lot more rain than we have. Looks like wonderful place to visit, glad to see that you must be feeling better ✨

I can never resist waterfalls, and this one is a delight, with the scenic trail to follow on the way.

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 ...

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Vondel

  I nthe heart of Devonport in Auckland is this little block of businesses. In my younger days I worked in this suburb as a legal typist for lawyers and to see it now as it is, it's made many changes over the years. This building is surrounded by older style buildings in the main street with businesses such as shoe shops, clothing shops, professionals, cafes, bars, restaurants etc. It's a very upmarket suburb with quite expensive houses along the waterfront. Vondel in the above photo is a restaurant but upon looking up their website, there wasn't alot of information about who they are. Linking up with  Weekend Reflections   and the  Weekend Roundup .
