Blenheim Clock tower


My World for this week is;


















An Autumn leaved street tree for the center of town and the Clock Tower of Market Square, in Blenheim.
The clock tower was originally on top of the old Post Office building, but when the old building was demolished and replaced the tower was moved to here and kept as a good place to sit down and to use the phone and also to study the street maps of the town. The pretty Liquid Amber tree is just across from the tower, outside a Fashion store.

Autumn in the Marlborough Vineyards





Almost the whole Wairau Plains of Marlborough are covered in, from the blue mountains to the golden mountains on the other side Grape vines, in Autumn when the leaves all turn golden or red it is very beautiful. It is especially beautiful when flying in or out of the district. I enjoy the vista as I drive around in the taxi and I take a few photos, but not many because the whole plain is so flat there are few vantage points where you can get a great veiw of them. The grapes have all been harvested now and are being turned slowly in great wine.

Thats My World for this week, do check out all the other wonderful postings from around the world.
