Little church by maggiemae

Little church

Onwards to another adventure. Through a bush clad gorge finding a truck had plunged down the cliff and half of it was lying on its side in the river! No sign of the driver. Down to the west to stop at NZ’s oldest hotel. Licensed in 1832 and built of solid kauri. Will post a shot.
This was across the quiet bay.
Three good things:
1. Seafood chowder by a real fire …it was cold and raining outside!
2. Learning about the old history of the area!
3. Got lost in the hills coming here but our GPS lady led us out on to the main road! Entirely her fault!
what a bright little church across the waters. Adds a lovely contrast to the scene.

This little white house looks wonderful set against the dark greens of the countryside. A lovely shot.

sounds like a very adventuresome day. Had to look up kauri, your chowder sound very good, and you should NEVER rely totally on that mechanical lady!

I love how this building is illuminated as if there were a spotlight on it to make it stand out so well. Great shot

@grammyn it was nicely painted in white, Katy so stood out! Took this before it started to rain- all night!

Oh gosh, hope the truck was an old happening and no-one there hurt. What a shocking sight!
I love this little church - it really stands out.

@casablanca it had red cones out by the cliff but no other signs! John thought his brakes had burnt out on the many downward curves! I didn’t want to think about it!
