I don't leave port very often, but this week I had an appointment in the city. It seems that every time I go in there is something new to see as the rebuild continues eight years after the last big earthquake struck. But there are also a few old things hanging around, like the tram, and many derelict buildings.
Good morning, Quail Island.
I loved visiting Motueka but I'm glad I live in Lyttelton.
If only there was a way to fix the carbon we have released into the atmosphere...
Is there anywhere free from plastic?
Love the silvereyes.
Good misty morning, #Lyttelton .
