Day 13/365 2017 Auckland Hospital Lift Well
We have been going to Auckland Hospital daily for the last 7 days visiting my Uncle and I have noticed lots of interesting architectural structures. Today's photo is of the hospital lift wells, they are fascinating to watch as they move so quickly...constantly all day!

Day 28 'Art Deco Napier'
A lot of the architecture in Napier is in the 'Art Deco' style. This is due to the 1931 7.8 earthquake that decimated much of the buildings.
They are beautifully restored and are an essential part of the culture of Napier.
This is a photo of the fountain which is also the home of the infamous statue 'Pania of the Reef'.

Day Thirteen 'Horse and Trap'
We had lunch today at the Horse and Trap in Mt Eden. This is another of Auckland's historical buildings. It was built in 1914 as a store for Winstones coal and carrier merchants. It has been damaged by fire twice and was converted into a bar and restaurant in the early 1990s.
