Tokoroa

 


When we lived in Tauranga back in 2017 we use to travel to Tokoroa to see an old school friend of mine who lives there. Its a very small town and we drove into the town center on a very busy rainy weekday. This is what many New Zealand towns look like; filled with coffee shops, supermarkets big and small, dairies and other retail shops.

Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Tom's Signs.

The scenes you show of towns in your country look thriving with commercial activity. Here, not so much downtowns are deserted and the commerce is at the Walmart and Dollar General stores on the edge of town.

I like that your pavements are covered so you can stroll in sun or rain with ease (I am usually melting if it rains).

This photo looks busier than what you normally share. Love it.
