Driving on the South Island of New Zealand on the West Coast, my travel companion and I stopped in the small-town of Moana and came across this pier which darts out into Lake Brunner. Scenic panoramic views of the lake, mountains and more to be had. I would have loved to see the tops of the snow-capped mountains, but the fog and dark clouds were a nice touch. Even a dock in New Zealand is beautiful! π

Back to Jackson Street Bridge and the Dpwntown Atlanta skyline I go. It's been a minute.Taking in the Grand Rapids Fall and coffee shop vibes at @rowstercoffee. βππMy @puremichigan coffee adventure series continues with a new post: "Go On A Michigan Coffee Adventure In The Great Lakes Bay Region". See link in bio. βββEnjoyed a Salted Caramel Mocha and Ham & Cheese Croissant recently at @thenarrowwaycafe along the Livernois Avenue of Fashion in Detroit! A wonderful, wonderful experience. ββ€πTaking a minute to pretend it's still summer. It's warm and I'm at the beach. Oh wait there are even Fall colors here along the sand. ππAnn Arbor Fall colors, a romantic picnic and city/skyline views awaits up-top Hunt Park. β€πππ§ΊWas at my favorite Fall color spot in the Brighton area today. The dirt path to get to the south end of Huron Meadows Metropark, always a breathtaking experience. ππβ€Always keep that camera ready in Autumn. You never know when you'll turn on a street and the colors will be popping.A daddy and his little man! β€ππββοΈ Without a care in the world. No words were spoken. Just staring out into the lake at the @puremichigan beauty in Fentpn.Tag Cloud

Beautiful shot! I’ve never been to New Zealand, but have heard only awesome things.
Thanks Samantha! New Zealand is a beautiful place. Hope you have a chance to get there!
There’s something mysterious about cloud-covered mountains. Docks everywhere are beautiful π
What takes you to NZ?
Definitely, there is something about fog too! Docks and piers that stick out into the water always get me. The beauty of NZ at every turn, never wanting to put the camera down, is one reason. π It is very Lord of the Rings-isque.
A good enough reason as far as I’m concerned!
