Here's another shot.


And here are the original paparazzi shots. I really wanted to get a shot from this angle, and parking is a bit tricky on this bend, so I had Ben drive this stretch of road. My hands were shaking from the cold medicine (really) and I only got two shots. I really wanted a couple from closer distance, but the road bends, and... Ben gets in the way.

I wonder if I should have sat in the back-right seat; we're in a short-and-wide Pajero and the backseats don't really have much view, but I need to experiment. Who woulda thunk we'd ever be studying the Art of Paparazzi (I decided to give Ben credit for all his driving me around, so no more paparazza)!
2 complaints:
Looks like the steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car. 8^} I had my first ride on the wrong side of the road in Auckland, NZ back in Nov. of nineteen fifty-aught-seven when the US Navy sent my submarine, USS BREAM SSK 243 for a 7 day visit. As I remember it, Auckland was a beautiful city and the citizens were some of the friendliest folk I have ever encountered.
Well, hello, sailor, then. Auckland IS beautiful, but it's changed quite a bit even in the 12 years we've been in NZ, especially the waterfront. Back in '93 we heard the size of the city (area wise) is the same as Los Angeles, and it's gotten bigger sine then. But of course, I understand the whole of NZ (4 million) in smaller than Sydney, so all in proportion!
