it was a perfect day to take the cable car up

to visit the botanical gardens.
here's a view of wellington:

we split a chocolate raspberry muffin from the cafe.
a bird literally flew onto my piece as i was holding it.
it startled me; i screamed...

these flowers remind me of my sister.
i think she likes begonias.
without her, i wouldn't be here in new zealand.
she was the one who encouraged me to study abroad :)

this plant makes me feel
uncomfortable but its so beautiful

dead little bug floating in the

lily pond while being nipped by little guppies.
