Take care of the earth..


Beautiful New Zealand.

Just found this on niece Hannah's FB
and thought how beautiful this is.
This is Mount Maunganui
and the entrance to Tauranga Harbour.

Just out to the right is where the container ship, the Rena is stuck on a reef.
Oil from the Rena has been polluting these beautiful beaches.

    Stunning picture, Joan, and I love the new photograph in your header, too.

    This is so beautiful, Joan, and a reminder with your words as to how fragile our planet is.

    Wonderful picture, the sea is so blue and turquoise.

    Your header from Venice is so beautiful. I love it.

    I wish I could have seen this place before 'civilization' hit it. (I say that about where I live too.)

    Oh me too Vicki.. and it is fast turning into a place of high rise apartments and mansions of the rich, taking the place of the humble kiwi holiday bach.

    Such beauty, and such a tragedy to have that oil spilt.
