This is an old photo from about 7 years ago when we lived in Tauranga. I think this is a suburb called Bureta? With Mount Maunganui aka Mauao in the background. The supermarket that says "Countdown" has now been changed back to the original name of "Woolworths".
We class Tauranga has being a city now rather than a town as the population has grown significantly over the years. But the real estate prices are through the roof and are very very expensive. We would move back there if we could but it's above our budget.

It is surprising how things change. I was born near Santa Fe, New Mexico and when I was a kid, yes it was a tourist town but kind of ordinary. Drug and department on the city square, now it is a town for the superrich.
