Nelson Creek


Above is the Nelson Creek pub, about 30 minutes outside of Greymouth. Such a warm Autumn day when we stopped there and hardly anyone about except an old gentleman sitting outside his cottage fixing something. This part of the West Coast, like most of it has gold mining history starting from around 1865 - people have been known to find bits and pieces in the river (below).  



B walked off to explore the swing bridge which was further up the river but I stayed down on the ground having a paddle in the water.

Linking up with Through my lens, Blue Monday, Tuesday TreasuresMy corner of the world and Wordless Wednesday.
