#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A man (60s?) is lugging a big plastic crate of Christmas ornaments from a shed while two small humans (3 & 4?) supervise, excitedly leading the way back into a pretty wooden bungalow.
A sleek tabby cat bringing up the rear.
A man (20s?) in baggy skater wear is crouching next to a brown miniature poodle, saying: "You're an AWESOME girl. Yes you are! YES you ARE"
Miniature Poodle is a woolly wiggle of rapturous adoration.
Fluffy tail wagging, tummy on show for pats.
Two mud covered men, sitting on muddy mountain bikes, are having a contented chat in the lee of a building as a light rain falls.
One says to the other: "Good ride, eh?"
The other laughs: "Yeah. I'm so happy I got to do it, although, I think it was more a slide than a ride!"
Three small humans (3 to 6?) are performing a VERY special play on a community stage. It involves a whole variety of singing, and some unexpected honking noises. Their audience a few curious seagulls.
Mum and Dad chilling at a nearby restaurant.
A big community Christmas tree in the background.
Three generations of the same family (Nan, Mum and Teen) are strutting down the street in their best black jeans and metal T-shirts. Nan's a fan of Pantera. Mum likes Ghost and Teen's rocking old school Metallica.
Cheerful chatter as they go.
