New Zealand Out-Takes, 5

Damn! We missed the speed-shearing contest!















Incipient boot-tree




















Elsewhere I featured "Headstones on Broadway" (Matamata?)
These just to show it was no fluke...mortuary stores are a
main street business here

















Thus















New Zealand wit




















So there we were, minding our own business, driving along
the North Island's Pacific coastal highway, not concerned
in the least about wandering stock

















When, just as we are taking a picture of the sign, this
insolent steer walks up and says "You gotta problem with
wandering stock, human?!" "Not all stock who wander are
lost, you know!" he added.

















It's a major problem here; of course we reported them















Tane/wahine...















The signage is always interesting















Bathrooms with roof garden...Hundertwasser country
















Ubiquitous...on the coasts




















Tough people, but gentle and always interesting
