The bike tree by dide

The bike tree

We had a night in Rotorua en route to today's hockey in Taupo. As we drove into town, we saw this bike tree. It didn't look very exciting, but when we went back after dark, it was all lit up like a Christmas tree and looked really lovely. Even the real trees next to it were picking up on the coloured lights.
Apologies to @deliad and @pitasmum for stealing images from your 'patch'. Hopefully next time it won't be such a whistle stop and we can catch up….
