Magical Minutes

I'm not sure if it's during the cold season only, but there is a magical window of 10 to 15 minutes before sunset when the light turns golden and all the trees and flowers in town look magical. Old Bank Reserve, off Buxton carpark. 
 

Fun

Shine, Hardy Street. 
 

Modern Day Wheat Bag

With ceramic something or rather inside. So cute, I lament I couldn't think of a child who might like one. 
 

Choice

Miniature cyclamen were three, or four, for $12, or $15. But I couldn't decide which red I wanted, so I just got this one. But... it's now looking more dark pink than the red it was when I bought it.  
 

Curious

I saw this denim jacket in the window; I couldn't figure out if it was a blue carefully undyed, or somehow tied and dyed in that narrow band only. I stood outside the shop for a good 20 minutes. Not printed, though. Later, I tried to go back to the shop to have a close look, but I couldn't remember which shop it was - either the pre-loved clothes shop or one with fancy brand clothes, near State Cinema, on Trafalgar Street. I visited both, but couldn't find it. I shall wonder, until my next mystery. 

New Fav

 

Our new favourite eatery, Tahunanui Breakfast Club, Tahunanui Road, within walking distance from ours. They were temporarily closed for a fortnight for refurbishment. 

No Ice Cream on Special

 

There used to be some nice shops here.

Among them, Graham's Trading used furniture shop. Bridge Street. 
 

Three Generations

Queens Gardens, between Bridge and Hardy Streets. 
 

Late Late Afternoon

Hardy Street
 

A Fav

Former Children's Library, former Nelson Polytechnic School of Fishery, currently vacant(?) due to earthquake damage risk. One of my favourite buildings. Hardy Street. 
 

Pediatric Ward, Nelson Hospital

 

Stumped

Trees on Bridge Street seems to have been removed (completely?), including some lovely big ones. On the other hand, it may be a new thing to leave footwear all over town. 

Thanks for the Warning

Invisible box in front of the former Westpac Bank, Trafalgar Street.
