I think the eggs must be part of the Botanic D’Lights event that’s on this week (where the gardens get lit up with lots of light displays). I’m hoping to get to the event one night this week – though the weather is not looking great!

The demolition of the Calendar Girls building is well on its way  – I imagine in a few weeks it will just be another empty lot. The building is being demolished to make way for the development of the East Frame – which will be a new inner-city residential area…

I don’t think I’ve ever featured this on the blog before, which surprises me as it’s rather quirky. It’s the Edmond’s phone booth near Madras Street. It was built in 1929 thanks to local businessman Thomas Edmonds. You can learn more about Thomas Edmonds at http://edmondscooking.co.nz/history.

The small building in the foreground is at the Ferrymead Historic Village – with the large hill in the background being Castle Rock.

Spotted on Durham Street in an alley way of a new building.

Looking down into Sumner from the Scarborough hill (standing on the Flowers Track).
