Irish woman New Zealand holiday
This is St Patricks day celebration in Singapore. There was Irish dancing, Irish Bands and a Parade. This all happened in here where I live and soon I will write about my Singapore in a future posting.
Watching a streak of green curling around Boat Quay was amazing ( I would say 'surreal' but along with 'awsome' its my most hated word, am not to keen about ' centred around' either but thats just based on logic
Approx 3 weeks earlier I was here in the Cook Straits crossing from Wellington to Picton with M. This was my fourth visit - to a country I never wanted to see but then on my 1st visit in 1999 I realised that its one of the most beautiful countries in the world that I have visited.
Take the tranz coastal rail its about 6 hours of stunning beauty and another of my top 10 best train journeys ( I already mentioned Dublin to Greystones in my last posting) more photos later
This one next photo is a seaside town near Wellington, another excellent commuter train journey to a small town with 2 little coffee shops on a warm Saturday afternoon in Feburary 2010 - a very special day.
A breezy little conurbation
