Blue skies today...


With so much rain lately and Winter here early it was a treat to see blue skies out yesterday and this morning so I drove out to the beach and got this photo of the sun just coming up.

I had the day off from work yesterday as I am down with another head cold, think I'm at the point where I"m so tired of being sick - it wasn't so long ago I was battling a chest infection and the thing is when you work in customer service like I do we get people coming in all the time sick so it's easy to pick up bugs.

I could always get the flu injection I suppose but I"m a bit wary about things like that...

A great clear sunrise. It's good that the rain cleared for a bit. I hope you get over the cold.

I'm sorry to hear you've been laid low again. I've had the 'flu injection for many years and have avoided 'flu thank heaven. I've had it twice in my life and it laid me low for weeks on each occasion. Of course it won't stop anything else and a severe cold can be very debilitating too. Having gone several years without one I've had two corkers already this year meaning that I've not been able to see my new grandson for a week or two on each occasion.

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 .
