We enjoyed a gander around Auckland City today. Having grown up in the suburbs of this city I also worked here for quite a few years and being me I asked the other half to find a parking spot so I could see what's changed. So many new buildings being built and so many old buildings being worked on.
In this shot it was on the corner of the Britomart station these lime scooters were parked next to a street cafe - they seem to be the new in thing now.
Edited to add: These electric scooters aren't illegal but they seem to have caused alot of trouble since they were first bought out with accidents and people not using them properly.
Linking up with Our World Tuesday.

Are they electric scooters? Some of the yachties have them here and they scoot along the waterfront. Looks fun..if you're a bit younger than me
I wondered if they were electric. At the moment there is an information campaign here to educate people about e scooters as they are illegal on our roads and pavements. There have already been fatalities.
They are popular in Auckland but there have been accidents and I hear pedestrians are intimidated by them riding on the walk paths.
You do have to follow the rules when driving any type of vehicle to prevent injuries. Scooters are another vehicle added to the mix on the streets.
Hello, the scooters would be a fun way to tour the city. They are colorful. Hopefully everyone is safe riding on them. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!
We have some of those here as well.
We have those here in the city, but I haven't tried one of those yet.
Worth a Thousand Words
Those Lime scooters are everywhere here too!
