First floor


First floor, originally uploaded by Lester Ralph Blair.

This is the stairwell in a Wellington apartment block. My wife and i have been here for six months, having relocated from New Plymouth. I was immediately attracted to this apartment on entering these stairs. I liked the spaciousness, light, and the solid 1920's structure. In two weeks we are moving to another apartment. There will be Wood Pigeons (Kereru) and Tui in the trees, people going to and fro up the street. Just a short stroll to bookshops for hours of happy browsing. My wife is constantly arranging furniture to me in conversation. I am looking forward to this move. This present apartment has been a very pleasant introduction to Wellington.
