More Flower Photos


Here I go again.


I didn’t bring my lap top with me to New Zealand, and have been posting on my blog from my i-phone. I have been struggling with it, but I have finally figured how to do it right. I am here for five more days. I think you will be seeing even more photos while I remain in New Zealand. The flowers are all so bright here, I just have to take their photos.

Today’s Flower

           I love my daily walks here in New Zealand, and often see beautiful flowers, but rarely know their names. Above is yet another lovely blossom that I can’t name. I do want to share its vibrant color with you, even though I can’t supply you with a name.

Cruise Ship Departing Pilot Bay


It was another lovely evening in Pilot Bay, New Zealand , and I was quite shocked to see a huge cruise ship docked in the harbor. Completly fascinated,  I stood admiring  it for quite some time.

The sky was growing darker, when Suddenly there were three long blasts of the horn, and the ship slowly backed from the berth,  making its way out of the harbor. The huge vessel was both beautiful, and majestic as it moved away and disappeared into the night. This was a sight I will remember for a very long time.

After the Storm


Cyclone Cook is over, and the weather is beautiful. Took this photo of Pilot Bay New Zealand, this morning. A few days ago when I learned a cyclone was headed our way, I did not know what to expect, and was told it is the same as a hurricane in the United States.
