I live in Auckland, New Zealand.

Looking towards the city from the North Shore.



Nice shot of the harbour.



Looking back from the city towards the North Shore where I live in Birkenhead.



Looking towards Birkenhead from the other side of the iconic harbour bridge which is, sadly, falling apart.


Wow looks nice!

And some other nice places in Romania

Come visit, you're welcome anytime! And if you do, let me know!

How many days a year does it rain in London?

Well, Romania is definitely high on my "to visit" list. But that doesn't mean much because I almost don't travel abroad at all lately... :-\

Why do I get the feeling that all you people posting pictures of castles, palaces and scenic vistas actually live in run-down shanties in appalling ghettos on the other side of the tracks.

Boston Harbor:



It's true I do not reside here;  but the building where I work is on camera.

I reside in a castle to the north ("the Bayreuth of New England").

Oh, but you will be a welcome visitor, Maciek;  you will not be a tourist  8)

Maciek

Wonderful! I've always wanted to visit a New England castle! ;D
