Secret spot Wellington


Not many people know where this was taken from. It's from the top of View road. Got that? View road! It's a pretty cool walk through the bush until you get to the top.

This is the amazing new display at Delux cafe. An amazing contraption full of Kiwi ingenuity which, when it's working, does all kinds of cool things!

Cuba Street

Today was one of those days when I wished I had a digital camera at hand. As I approached the bucket-fountain in Cuba Street I saw a large man, on the ground, being wrestled around by 3 cops : 1 male and 2 females. They pepper-sprayed the dude 3 times before he was successfully handcuffed. He was a drunk and uncooperative, but not particularly agrressive, just resistant. He wasn't lashing out from what I saw, just trying his damndest to keep from being handcuffed . A large crowd had gathered to watch the free show. A large Maori man behind me shouted at the melee : "You shoud go back to Police college to learn how to make an arrest". After approximately 5 minutes more white cops arrived. "They should go and catch some real criminals", said the women next to me. "Keystone cops", said her partner. Anyhow, eventually, the cops led the man away.

No posting no cry!

OK, it's been a while since I was able to post pics because I sold my SLR. The aim of the blog : there is no aim. Just random pics taken whenever I feel like it.
