Das Zoo!
And it rained… and me and my camera gear got… yes.. you guessed it.. we got not dry. Still, the rhinos stank *holds nose* dang… 🙂
Here are some totally random images, oh, and I noticed, I seem to have screwed up some setting in the camera and now the JPG files come out overexposed. really really annoying.. will have to find what it is (probably the idiot holding the camera) 🙂
This one has me confused… why would you put a phallic shaped drinking fountain at a zoo ? … yeah… only in New Zealand eh… 🙂
Uncle Bob and Aunty Mandy
George and Kerry…
Uncle Mike
Some random ass!
Cousin Jerry showing off his new dental work.. sheesh.
Second Cousin Kathy, getting her … err…. never mind….
Beryl and Sally – chronic gossipers
Exploring…
*Points to the window like a great explorer*… RIGHT! I’m off out to explore this winter wonderland of twisted little city we call Auckland…*stomps around a little bit*.. heheh.. Wonder what I’ll see, Or Who I might run into…. *sighs* anyone want to do lunch with a z3bra ? 🙂
Random Drive, Gypsy Fairs and National Parks
Went for a semi-random drive today, there was a Gypsy fair on in one of the outlying towns, so went there.. Oh so lame… it’s on again in a few weeks in another city, will go to that one, hopfully it will be better…
here are a few pictures from the fair…
After that, I stopped at our old Earth Station Satellite Base. It’s hardly used anymore, which is a shame, and back in the day, there used to be a little show and stuff that you could go watch,.. a family sort of thing… shame how things have changed 😦
After that, a drive to a beach,
and then a National Park, with video………

Hope you enjoyed this lot.
Next week or two will be a bit more quiet, as I have a ton of other stuff I need to do.
Cheers
Random Saturday drive around the outskirts of Auckland
Got some pictures of a dirty sunset, I was messing about with the setting on the camera to see what they did.. so along the way I got these..
A random sneaker trying to sneak up a poll… and.. Kawakawa bay dairy, where I got the best fish and chips I have had in a long long time.
Thanks Kawakawa bay dairy 🙂
Toddles 🙂
