one then comes to this lovely seat below which is outside the Reyburn House Gallery
then there is this pleasant place to sit and look at the river.
this is one of many with the top that can be altered so that one can either look at the river or inland.
after crossing the new pedestrian bridge one is in the industrial part of whangarei and this is reflected in the industrial looking benches.
After crossing the new road bridge we come to some more of the seagull type seats and one of the ladies who accompanies her husband on the Parkinson walks is sitting (or reclining) on one.
Then there are these lovely benches made and donated by the local "Men's Shed"
then, when one comes to the road there is a bus stop. This is where we rested on the Parkinson walk
Most of these seats are repeated at various stages of the walk.
look at the variety, colour and shape, one for every man and his "lady"!! Cheers,Jean.
ReplyDeleteSo much work has gone into the new part of this walkway. It is wonderful.
DeleteOne thing you never see here are 'benches'. Maybe I should show someone your today's page.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you should knock some up and gift them.
DeleteYou are certainly well catered for in the seat department.
ReplyDeleteIt is so important to have places to sit, rest, and may be enjoy a picnic when you are out on a walk.
Yes, when it finally stops raining and the sun shines for any length of time, it will be great to go down there for a picnic.
DeleteWhat unusual seagull style seats - very stylish.

Yes, those seats are lovely. The first lot have been there a while and some more appeared on the other side of the river last year and now a third lot.
Deletethose curvy bench seats look wonderfully comfortable.
ReplyDeleteThey are all great places to stop and take in the view. I am pleased to say that it is being well used. We had our third walk there this morning and go again tomorrow on an Alzheimer's Memory Walk.
DeleteQuite the variety of seating along the way. Makes it nice to have a place to set and rest for a bit.
