Missie and I
went exploring our new home ystdy. Not
heaps of exploring cos it got hot, not as hot as today though but still hot
enough. We started by going to a couple
of op-shops, didn’t buy anything but was fun looking. We then headed to the Napier Botanical
Gardens, which just gotta warn you are nowhere near as good as Edinburgh L I think Edinburgh may have ruined
me for Botanical Gardens, they were just way much better than any others I have
seen. Anyhow back to Napier, there wasn’t
really anything majorly wrong with the gardens they just weren’t really
anything much, nothing to write home about as they say. The one saving grace was that at the top of
the hill I found the Napier Cemetery.
Any gardens next to a cemetery get bonus points from me J
After the
gardens and the cemetery we headed to Bluff Hill to the lookout area. Found some logs for Bro but he didn’t seem to
want them for some reason L Haha we walked to the lookout cos we saw a
sign that said pedestrian access to Bluff Hill so Spartz stopped and let us
out. When we got to the lookout it
turned out we coulda driven and Spartz coulda almost seen the view as
well. Oh well maybe next time. We probably just wanted to climb some steps
cos its been a while since done that last lol.
We then
drove round the bay, past the port where there were even more logs for Bro and
these ones were on a train all ready to just go to him, to see what was there
cos we had heard there were some lovely cafes and nice bars there. Took a wrong turn so only saw these from a
distance but they did look good haha.
Spartz is very good at sightseeing over here (hehe) J but we do always manage to find our
way back to where we are staying.
This past
week we have also been for a couple of walks around this area and a bike ride
just to see what’s what. We are staying
in a new-ish subdivision area so there is basically just houses all around,
nothing real fun to look at or explore unless we go further away but I do feel
bad not giving Spartz a day off, hence why today we chilled hehe.
Napier Botanical Gardens
So kind of them to put a sign warning me of Missie hiding in the tree hehe
We like this bridge, but there was no water :( guessing its a summer water restrictions thing or something
Coolest tree ever :)
Just liked these ones
This tree looked way more yellow on the day... Missie liked it cos it was bright like her
Sign, cos why not
