Since our Auckland trip we have been doing a few revisits to local places, we took some photos in a abandoned spot here in Palmerston North of us all, in November and they should be on the site next month. The nifty Christmas photo (feedback welcome) was taken by the Xmas tree in the Square one sunny arvo, few stares and laughs along with the odd cellphone where pulled out, but it was all good fun, it was something different and we where really pleased with the finished image, hope you all like it too (more pictures that we didn't use soon).
We took a little trip down the Island and explored an old Catholic girls boarding school. It was one of these locations where people actually lived there, while no one was on site for most of our explore (we where still on high alert just incase we had to do a runner) we gapped it when one of our 5-minute-urbexer mates spotted a guy in a paddock headed for us. The buildings like most places we visit, smashed windows, missing taps and my favourite paint peeling off the walls, so not quite the Hilton, we did find the odd couch to have a seat on. In the Gym there was a intoxicating 30cm pile of pigeon crap foot on the floor.

The other small trip we made took us around the back of the Tui Brewery, theres an old disused swimming pool, looked like once upon a time the Tui girls used to have their work parties here.
