Inside a cafe


 I visited this cafe in Kawakawa about a month ago, sitting at a table with other people around me is a dream at the moment. Can't wait until Covid is over. This is for Tom's post for things beginning with "I" and Weekend Reflections.

Edited to add: we are still under lockdown here with a review due Monday night, this photo was taken beforehand.

Looks like a nice cozy restaurant. I tried to read the menu but I couldn't. We ate at a Fuddruckers's, a chain, last night and shared an order of fish and chips. It was good but not as good as the English. We had social distancing and rubber gloves for the salad bar helping ourselves, the drink machine also. Texas is about the worst place for COVID-19 numbers and we've been jabbed. Still crossing our fingers.
We visited NZ in 2012-2013, traveling from Auckland to Sydney, Aus, but we went south and didn't go up to Northland.

I'm glad my city never had a lockdown.

Hopefully, you'll be able to go to the cafe again soon.

...eating inside is something that I'm not prepared to do at the moment. I try to go into stores only when I need to and for as short a time as possible!

Wait till you've experienced going into your 7th consecutive month of lock down. You would have forgotten what cafes ever were. The state of isolation it creates makes you realize why long term prisoners struggle to adapt to release and community.

It's the small everyday things we miss the most. Hope it isn't too long before you can wander freely again.

It will be nice when we don't have to constantly worry about doing the things we love.

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 .
