Nana Ni's


I don't know who Nana Ni is but I saw this cafe sign in Reefton recently. People watching is sometimes interesting as well as amusing and I do love this very neat, pretty town but sadly buying anything there is a bit over-priced.

So we've had leaders debates in the last couple of weeks from the larger and smaller parties in this year's election and there's a reason why I don't bother watching them, more like so I don't have to listen to people talking over each other and finger pointing. It just gets a bit much.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections and the Weekend Roundup.

Looks like a really good place to people watch, cars too. It is okay with management?
We don't watch the political debates, we know who will vote for ahead of time.

Look at the bleaching quality of the sunlight in that photo! Absolutely agree on those political debates broadcasts. Kindergartens are usually better run.

Love people watching.
I can't be bothered with all the negativity around politics. Is it so hard to be nice?

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 ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
