I'm sure we've all stood in this same way at airports in our lives. This one features B and 2 tourists waiting for coffee at Auckland Airport. There's not many places I've drank a good coffee, just the odd cafe.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections and the Weekend Roundup.

That is a small queue though. Headache with people everywhere

Queues at London airports would be a joy if there were just one or two waiting.

Nice picture, busy place at times. I've eaten meals and snacks, never tried the coffee from any airport cafe.. When we landed at Aukland we were quickly hustled to a hotel to wait for our ship to be made ready for us. We quickly left, our bags being cared for there and we walked to a ferry to take us for exploring the town and "mountain" over there. Later in the afternoon we went directly to our ready ship.

Great header and that queue is very small indeed. Food and drinks on airfields can't be trusted.

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 .

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 ...
