OMG OMG OMG 🤩 Be still, my beating heart! 🚉 🚃 ♥️ City Rail Link opening date revealed as 13 September https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/900907/city-rail-link-opening-date-revealed-as-13-september #PublicTransport #train #CRL #TāmakiMakaurau #Auckland

Lucky me, I got the upstairs front window seat on this morning's bus ride. Whau River mouth looking beautiful, and even the motorway looks pretty with the golden dawn light. #river #WhauRiver #publicTransport #Auckland #TamakiMakaurau #bus #somethingBeautiful #aucklandscenes

It's been a while since I had a window seat & it has been light enough to take photos: Whau River mouth at around dawn, with the tide in & boats moored. The water is calm, the sky is mostly clear with a few clouds, and the light has gone golden on the horizon. #river #WhauRiver #publicTransport #Auckland #TamakiMakaurau #bus #somethingBeautiful #aucklandscenes

HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE (2016) Charity Screening on Saturday 25 July 4pm

• We will be donating 50% of ticket sales to PAHU BARK as a tribute to Sam Neill. He was an enthusiastic animal lover and advocate for the protection of Aotearoa’s wilderness. We feel that he would really love this!

A film by Taika Waititi. Based on the book Wild Pork and Watercress by Barry Crump, Hunt for the Wilderpeople tells the story of Ricky (Julian Dennison), a defiant young city kid who finds himself on the run with his cantankerous foster uncle (Sam Neill) in the New Zealand bush. A national manhunt ensues, forcing the pair to put aside their differences and work together. PAHU BARK is a nonprofit based in Ferry Landing, New Zealand. Dedicated to helping dogs. The founder also trains her own pound rescues in conservation mahi. They organise weekly micro-donations to support various animal rescues across the country. Thank you to madmanfilmsnz for their support for this event.

COME EARLY! Doors 3pm, pre-show 3:30pm

Something a bit different this morning. A boat was heading into the harbour from Whau River mouth leaving a V-shaped wake behind. Also, I'm so glad I learnt the putting phone against window trick to avoid reflections, which I wasn't able to do to get a photo of the sunrise over Auckland CBD. #publicTransport #Auckland #TamakiMakaurau #bus #somethingBeautiful #aucklandscenes
