Manly

 


Just outside of Orewa, which is just north of Auckland (when we holidayed there last November) we drove to a nearby town of Manly. Back in the days when my grandparents lived in Orewa they use to drive through here on the way to my nana's doctor which was here but further up the road. It's changed alot over the years.

Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Tom's signs.

I think I would have a hard time driving here. I notice the traffic circle goes in the opposite direction of what I am used to!

It looks like that car is going to drive right into the van! If I didn't know the town was named Manly I'd find the fish and chip name amusing.
