Titirangi



Dieter and I are trying to make the most of our days off by going to a different place in Auckland each week. Yesterday we went to Titirangi where I hadn't been for a bout 10 years probably. Stopped off on the way at Waikumete Cemetery and put flowers on Mum's grave. Visited Lopdell House first and took in a wonderful Colin McCahon exhibition of his Titirangi years with a range of paintings I hadn't seen before. Many of them came from the Hocken and depicted stands of kauri , houses, seascapes in a range of colours in a grid pattern. Then went to Cafe Boss, a German cafe with wonderful baking and good coffee.
