A Trip To New Zealand Pt 3

Baldwin street is the steepest street in THE WORLD and is in Dunedin NZ.

More Christchurch.
"A church" that I'd better do a bit of research on!
The Christchurch art gallery or Te Puna O Waiwhetu.

A Trip To New Zealand

We flew into Christchurch and spent two nights and one day there. A picturesque and quiet town. Next time we get a hankering to go to England I think we'll just go to NZ.

The Avon river with punting -  kinda like England.
Phone boxes - kinda like the English ones!

Here comes the garage...eventually...maybe?!

After years of talking about and planning our mythical garage, the first actual physical progress happened this week with the removal of an inconvenient piece of nature. 

Gran'ma turns the big 75.

Lunch for Grandma at Mihn Vietnamese restaurant in Dulwich Hill. Cheap and cheerful.  Note the wise decision to BYO urine samples. 

That was the month that was...July

A trip to the footy.

Springwood pool.

Scones anyone?

Sleeping beauties.

Two sides

A model Boy with his model of the Solar System.
The leader of a gang of Sleepoverers.

Boy turns the big one oh.

  Wha'cha get, wha'cha get?
  Boy sniffs out the candles.

Queen's Birthday Long Weekend

A quick trip to the AGNSW to see Adam Cullen and get a free cup of coffee in the Member's Lounge. I reckon we get our membership fee back in free coffee and hot chocolate.  I'm sure this guy thinks he's next on the horsey ride when he puts his money in the slot.

Followed by a catch up with the Mullins clan. We met them at the James Squire bar on King St wharf for a refreshing ale and champers. Then we dined (for T's continuing birthday celebrations) at Malaya.
