Down under where the swans are black...

..and men walk on the ceiling.

Been busy in Napier  - Art Deco Trail, some fantastic buildings and lots of pictures. Managed to sunburn myself slightly - can't get my head around the christmas decorations in the shops and the heat. Hawkes Bay has its own microclimate which is hotter than most of th rest of NZ.

Also managed to find and record our own first anticlockwise sundial, which is quite a thing for Mark- I've been wanting to spot one of those for years. Pure geek.

We went shopping for supper tonight, intending to eat it, but discovered that the local "chippy", which is actually a fresh fish outlet for the Hawke's Bay fishery, offers real fresh fish and chips for less than foe wet fish cost. Ideas for what to do with several bunches of asparagus on a postcard, please.

Road sign of the day: "Merge like a Zip". How are you supposed to drive after reading that?

Card ot the day: Good friends are like thighs. They stick together most of the time.

I like the kiwi humour.
