‘Down At The Dockside III’
More goings on at the Ports of Auckland.
This boxlike freighter, the ‘Beluga Ace’, may well be a sister ship to the vessel recently featured in my post Down At The Dockside Again .They are equally inelegant in any case.
F**k knows why I am developing a nascent interest in the cargo ships that come into town by sea.
Something to do with the normality of international trade in abnormal pandemic- stricken times, I think.
Oddly comforting.
‘The Red King’
The historic red iron fence along Auckland’s port area features heads of kings.
Apparently its Neptune/ Poseidon, the god and ruler of the sea, replete with pointy crown, large proboscis and flowing beard.
Magnificent!
