bananas in pyjamas…are walking down the street

simone and amanda with wellington in the background

my zen spot

‘the big guy’ in wellington

home sweet home, i happen to like the minimal look

wellington cable car

home sweet home

tree made of ‘jandles’

the ‘little drummer boy’ performing for his saturday afternoon audience in cuba mall

cuba mall

“…you talkin’ to me…”

excuse me, where is venetto street?

an oceanic cave…very little mermaid

looking over marlborough sounds

conquering my fears…crossing a swinging bridge, maximum load= 1 person

ode to beamer, gentleman and his dog

“some help pleeeeese…” rowing in the marlborough sounds off the south island of

the interislander ferry from wellington to piction.

looking over queen charlotte sound.

furneaux lodge in queen charlotte’s sounds on my birthday, watching the national championsip match between the north island’s auckland team and the south’s otago team. i was pulling for otago, they got smothered by auckland…but simone and dined on fine wine, fish, and chips for dinner…fuel for the tramp to follow nest day.

ode to beamer…bronze of dapper man and his doggie in lampton quay in wellington (next to a very lovely shoe store).

view of surf to mountain in the south island…the picture does no justice to reality!

bougquet of wildflowers i picked on the way home from work…that’s right, cala lillies, lily of the valley, and poppies growing in the wild. i have no idea how they stand up to the wind.
