Labour Day Adventures in Greytown

It's Labour Day today which means I don't have to go to work - hurrah! Originally a whole bunch of us were meant to head to Greytown for the day, but in the end only two of us went "over the hill" - my friend Nankz and I. But we still had a blast.

We started off with some lunch - we both ended up having eggs on toast for lunch, not particularly adventurous.  I thought I'd share some of the kitsch in the cafe we went to though, it was called "Cahoots".

We came across an "Art Car" - well I guess that's what I'd call it! Parts of this old car had been cut out to make it look like one big stencil. It was pretty cool.

 When a bunch of us visited Greytown at Easter we ate here - its pink and adorable.

 Map of the "big smoke" of Greytown - its a typical New Zealand town - one HUGE main street.

 We visited "The Lolly Jar" and it was such a pretty shop - lollies from all over the world. Including some special lollies for Halloween.

 I've never actually visited this store - but I've always loved this sign.

There are a lot of cute little shops like this in Greytown - old cottages that have been converted to shops, cafes or accomodation.

Hope you enjoyed this wee snapshot of my Monday off work - hope you're all having a good week!
