Chair

The bar open from 5pm...

Lion in the CBD

Steps

Fog

Just a few sec I could see the industrial area n between the fog this monring.
It's all swallow by the fog now and I can only see white cloud like scene.

I bet flight was cancelled this morning...

Orange Sky No Cloud

Another crisp evening.

Breakfast

These guys are such teasers they are usually deeply in the tree for breakfast but today this guy posed just long enough for me to fetch the camera. Not long enough to change the white balance nor to get out of the macro setting, though. There are two of them, but they like to eat separately. Occasionally they sit in my naked cherry tree in the afternoon and compare notes.

Walkway

Another naked trees along Mitai walkway,.

Winter Branch and Clear Sky

Crisp day, clear blue sky and naked tree.

Chilly Afternoon

Hardy Street

One chilly afternoon.  Those tree still have little leaves left but getting colder and colder.  It's winter in CBD.


 

Cold Spell

It's been cold all over New Zealand this week; Nelson has had two consecutive overnight temperatures below 0C, which is cold for Nelson. But every year, by June, I don't feel the cold any more and much time is spent on perpetual weeding.

This year I learned about multi-level potting of different bulbs, the idea being the smaller ones on top flower early and medium and larger ones will follow. The top layers have come out, but now I don't know what's going to happen to the violets, (the purple ones may die after this morning's frost), or the subsequent layers on top. I only followed the instructions from a bulb company!

Bye Bye Istanbul

One in a while, we decided to go somewhere for nice dinner.. 

We headed to favourite place after much sort where to go.


... and ... 
 

What we found is that it has been closed and something is going on inside..


Little sighn  on window (not in pic) says it will be reborn as "Cafe MAX" in sometime soon.



I miss their platters most and may of decisions food.    I'm not sure what kind of place it will be next.

... maybe keep eye on it ... 

Moon

It's a good crispy Sunday morning (Well it's about 10:30am) !  There is a moon over the mountain range today.

Pomeroy's

A cup of long black at Pomeroy's.
