Thursday evening at about 8.00pm I was standing at our kitchen window when the most amazing, perfect rainbow just popped up in the sky. It was so big that I couldn't get it all in my sight, and then I went to the front of the house and this sunset greeted me...

Shadow Shot Sunday..

Thanks to Tracy over at Hey Harriet for hosting us, you can visit her over at Shadow Shot Sunday: http://heyharriet.blogspot.com/


Yesterday ( Saturday) we drove to the North Shore of Auckland, about 120kms from where we live, and an hours drive, to visit an elderly friend who is in hospital. After the visit we went to Devonport, a suburb in Auckland that is on the waters edge and has the most amazing views of the city.  The majority of people who live in Devonport and work in the city take the ferry to work, as it is only about a 10 - 15minue trip. I have added a couple of shots looking across at the city.

 The rescue helicopter, this was taken from the fifth floor window at the hospital..

These Clydesdales and wagon are waiting outside the ferry building to take tourists for a ride around Devonport..

Enjoy your weekend ..
