Honey Cafe

 



So here are the photos from 2 weeks ago when i visited a new cafe which is on the corner of Kumara/Greymouth and Hokitika. 

In the corner of where we were sitting was a display of Greenstone/Pounamu -  I did ask where it had come from and I was told by one of the workers that a local lady finds these in the nearby rivers.


The counter area that was full of yummy food at good prices.


Some of the seating area - we chose this table and chairs near the window with sun coming through.


My 2 children and friends ordering their food.



Always gotta have a mochaccino when we visit cafes - that's my go to. So if you ever are out this way, visit this cafe cos their food was darn good and well priced.

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.

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 ...
