Awe-inspiring ...

..... and jaw-droppingly beautiful.
I could hardly take my eyes off it.
We do get some wonderful sunrises here but this one was up there with the best.
I had a visit this afternoon from a friend I hadn’t seen since last year. He’s had so many challenges over the past few years, including the quakes & house damage of course. He’s been weathering Covid-19 too and has done remarkably well, including now being in a new relationship.
I was delighted for him!

A woman broke out of her quarantine hotel in Auckland today. I hope they throw the book at her. So she didn’t like it? A few of those quarantined seem to think that 14 days is too much.
