I am very grateful for trains and busses that take people over 65 to places they won’t visit on their own.
The best is that between 9 am to 3 pm the trip is free!
I try to make a trip to Wellington city once a week now that the weather is clearing up.
Last week was very cold and cloudy.
This week the weather here in Upper Hutt was kind of clear.
Sorry to say, just before reaching Wellington station there was a heavy down pour .
It was dry during my stroll along the harbour.
I am so grateful that I could take some photos of the dark clouds
Then the sun appeared.
Better still,
nearly clear sky gave me the following
and this one!
These photos are all taken at the civic center in
Wellington New Zealand
Then back home again.
I am very grateful for the opportunity to take some special photos again.
I am grateful for having the talent to see the beauty around me and to photograph them.
I am grateful this week for an excellent report on my photo by my tutor!
What have you been grateful for this week?

Great photo’s Ineke!
Thanks for compliment! I feel I am getting somewhere now after my second course!
Your photos are really getting better – and how lucky you were to have the perfect weather for them 🙂
PS: I think it is great that seniors have the opportunity to travel for free – at least it gets people out and about.
Thank you! Lots of elderly people just take a trip and have a cup of tea/coffee and meet up with friends and then go back home.
I think it is wonderful. It encourages people to go out and be social.
That’s for sure. I also start to know more faces and people because we use the same train or bus!
Great photos, scrapydo. Glad the sun came out for you. How wonderful it must be to have free and reliable public transport. I would also be very grateful. 🙂
Thank you. Many over 65 go for a ride and a cup of tea/coffee and come back again. It is about 40 minutes train journey into Wellington
Dis regtig mooi foto’s
Lekker jy kan so verniet ry So ken jy later ook die stad
Beslis, ek weet nou al presies hoe om by die “stadsplein” te kom sonder probleme. Die biblioteek is ook daar en die kunsgallery. Dan praat ek nie eers van die hawe en later nog Te Papa ook
Ja en dis goeie oefening ook… Daar sal altyd nuwe foto’s te krye wees
Goeie oefening vat aan my ou lyf! Ek raak BAIE moeg die laaste tyd.
I’m grateful to be visiting here. 🙂 Lovely shots, great post, Scrapydo.
Thank you very much, you are always welcome. You might be interested to visit me at http://scrapydo2.wordpress.com/2014/08/31/spring-is-in-the-air-flower-power/ also
Dit klink nou na ‘n heerlike uitstappie. Die verniet rit is ‘n ekstra bonus 😉
Beslis heerlik. Mens kom dan erens anders ook sonder veel uitgawe
