On the walk around Nelson Airport….

you get quite close to aviation traffic

Spotted in Richmond over the weekend….

Amazing to see that they can fit…

up to 60 people into …..

one of these small lifeboats.

Looks like they are getting ready

to ship out lots & lots of apples this season.

Yachts having a good time tonight….

did you know that other than just the sunshine our region is known for….we also get the odd breeze or two. Obviously these yachts out tonight found that out for themselves?

Random windsurfers just thrown in the mix for extra effect!

While on the subject of classic cars

this muscle car beauty delivered the bride to a wedding I attended Saturday, Original too.

After this weekends Annual Carshow…

one of the many convoys leave town.

Why was the Main street closed Saturday…..

Well it was because town,

and the main street of Nelson, Trafalgar St

played host to dozens of market stalls setup for the annual marketday bargains for shoppers.

Waitangi Day was Wednesday last week…

this local sign made sure in a creative way, we knew about it .

Another before and after…

Before

and the aftermath

from the Burnout Competition day at the Nelson Car Show this past weekend.

Tahunanui Outdoor Fitness Area, Nelson…

 

As if you needed another reason to love the place.

Devine Fitness Equipment, Fulton Hogan, Nelmac and Nelson North Lions Club are to be commended

and thanked for their foresight in giving Nelson such a fabulous array of outdoor exercise equipment….

… spread along the parkway near the road, and therefore readily accessible by everyone.
