After a couple of months and numerous sidetracks, we returned to Point Chevalier with its state homes and infill housing. We started out at the Point Chev shops that line Great North Road before heading back into the neighborhood.
We’ve mentioned before how fond New Zealanders are of their native birds. We even go so far as to call ourselves kiwis after the national bird. These home owners took that love to a new level with some beautiful trompe-l’oeil paintings on their front wall.
New Zealanders call thrift stores ‘op shops’. This was one of the nicest ones we have come across during our walks.
