Kaeo Spice Grill Mural




I was out at Kaeo a couple of weeks ago taking photos of some historical places and saw this mural on the side of the Spice Grill Indian Takeaways Restaurant. I've tried finding out who the artist is but all I can make out on the bottom left looks something like "Firka"?!? but it accurately says "we all have our own packets to bear" which I took to mean "burdens".

We were out in the boat today but we weren't too successful in catching anything worthy, the other half caught loads of baby snapper which he threw back and I caught what looked like a 1 metre shark which also got let go. Normally Winter is quiet with not many other boaties out there but today it looked like we weren't the only ones not having much luck.

Linking up with Mural Monday and Our World Tuesday.

Not a fish-person. Hubby once accidentailly caught a blow-fish in Carnarvon, Western Australia, eeek.
But I LOVE Indian food :-)

I love the lines of that art, and the spartan use of colour. Thanks for keeping your eyes open wherever you go.

...a great one, yes we all have burdens to bear.

That's the second post in a row I've read with a mural. I'm so glad they are becoming even more popular. The though behind that one is so true as well. I haven't been out fishing for the best part of 40 years. I think that it was the last time that we came up against a basking shark which decided to rub itself along the boat which was considerably smaller than the shark.

That's an interesting mural. I'd say she has quite a load. Too bad about the fishing.

The mural is perfectly sited there, making the most of that space.

Sorry I'm late visiting. I've been fighting keeping my internet going. It went down Monday and my provider sent someone out Tuesday to work on the problem. Now I'm finally back online.

This is a lovely mural, Amy. I agree with the sentiment on it, too. You found a good one, indeed.
