From Left Bank to North Shore

So the bachelors say farewell to their arty inner city loft apartment just off naughty K Road after our first five months in Auckland

                                                                                                                                                    And they move to their new home in leafy ( they always say leafy to attract bourgeois and rabbits) North Shore. Unit 1/31 Sispara Place, Beach Haven 0626 Auckland. Bachelors no longer, we need the extra space as Prabhash's wife Desika will be winging her way to join him next month.

                                                                                                                                         
The big feature is the deck that overlooks the kauri reserve with a glimpse of the harbour. It also overlooks a starburst of driveways that take more bourgeois folk up precipitous driveways to higher ground.

                                                                                                                                                      The tiny kingdom of Idyllia can be viewed from the very same deck and as far as we can ascertain prince Ludwig of Bavaria still lives in the white fantasy and can sometimes be heard murmuring "I wish to remain an eternal enigma to myself and to others."

                                                                                                                                                        Yes the divan in the living room is reserved for you dear friend, when you come and visit us in Auckland and while doing the washing up at the sink you will enjoy a harbour view.

                                                                                                                                                        Like all North Shore Mums we are probably proudest of our renovated bathroom.

                                                                                                                                                       The rigours of the blogger's monastic cell are rewarded by the best view in the house and bird activity in the morning is as rich as the hijinks of squirrels back in our other home in Sri Lanka.

                                                                                                                                                Cloud-set over my kauris

    

                                                                                                                                                    Dusk over the harbour
