the pohutukawa flowers

I know it is Christmas when the Pohutukawas (the New Zealand Christmas Tree) starts to flower. The flowers attract Tui’s which are so pleasant to listen to, music to the ear. As i ride the train home for Christmas I sit and think about how much I love summer and am so excited with all the adventures it holds.

This photo is taken at my favorite spot. Every time I pass this stretch of road (between Plimerton and Pukarua Bay) I take a photo. I love how this spot holds looks of emotion. Kapiti island and it’s surroundings is very moody and every time I drive past it looks different. Below are a few of my favorite pics from this year.

Merry Christmas Lovelies.
