Morning Walk on the Miramar Peninsula, Wellington.

8/9/2018

3 Comments

 
I often get up early and take a walk on the Miramar Peninsula - where I live in Wellington. I seldom let the weather deter me and I seldom leave home without my camera. 

The Miramar Peninsula sits at the South Eastern edge of Wellington - the capital city of New Zealand.  The famous Maori Explorer Kupe is credited as the first person to discover Aotearoa (New Zealand) and also the first person to land on what became the Miramar Peninsula. The Peninsula is now made up of a number of suburbs, each with its own unique character - Seatoun, Strathmore, Miramar, Maupuia, Breaker Bay, Moa Point, Worser Bay, Karaka Bay, Scorching Bay and Shelly Bay - home to around 20,000 people.  It is an area of rugged coastlines, sheltered bays, bushwalks as well as being the centre of the Film Industry and with a diverse selection of cafe's and restaurants.  The close proximity to Wellington International Airport adds to its appeal as a great location to live or visit.  

I feel very fortunate to live in this scenic coastal paradise and not a day goes by that I don't enjoy or appreciate my surroundings.  I have put together a slideshow of a selection of my photos so "you can see what I see" on my morning walk.

To be very honest, I really hate morning. I am more of an all-nighter and then sleep in the morning. I do not have a reason to wake up early in the morning. But after visiting your blog and reading this post, I realized that there are still many reasons to wake up early. If only I am staying in New Zealand and have a view like that, I would definitely be enthusiastic to wake up early and have a morning walk. But for now, I will try finding a perfect place that is perfect for morning walks.

Thank you & I hope you have managed to wake up early to enjoy your morning views and made the most of that time of the day. I also hope you have found the perfect place for morning walks in the location you live. All the best Liz

I love that collection of photos Liz. Thanks for sharing. I live in Miramar and know many of those views but I’ll be on the look out for some perspectives I haven’t noticed.
