And that my friends is where the sun…

in the Nelson region sets….

the June 2012 evening after the longest night….

and therefore the day after the shortest day of the year here downunder in New Zealand.

Broadgreen is much easier to see….

 

and she sure looks a lot better than when I last took a photo of her…..

This time of year, courtesy of “de-leaved” trees everything opens up just that little bit more.

Don’t forget it starts this Friday.

This Imposing statue at Nelson airport…

was carved by Nigel Shaw, “Koru” is a work of his dedicated in the memory of Paul Robinson. You can find it just near the start of the airport perimeter walk not too far south from the walkway carpark.

Radio Controlled Yachts…

enjoying gentle zephyrs down at Monaco on Saturday afternoon.

Two things this morning…

whether you aim was to head out on the bay today for a spot of leisurely fishing….

…..or return home after some early morning peaceful exercise….one things clear

Nelson makes all these two things possible, and very easily too. No need to drive 30 mins through traffic to accomplish your aim in this town.

Perhaps another reason why…..

English immigrants love Brightwater, could be said “they feel at home?” And why also the suburb has the highest concentration of recent UK immigrants out of any in NZ.

Bit of a fresh start this morning…

almost an apt name for the company who sponsor this Tahunanui Drive sign too.

Our own little seaside suburb

….is Monaco, here basking in the morning sun.

Pertinent name I suggest….

Got the distinct impression…

that winter is just around the corner

here in Nelson New Zealand.
