Rainbows in Moerewa

This rainbow mural in Moerewa has been painted on the side of one of the shops. It was organized by the local He Iwi Kotahi Tatou Trust.

Red Moerewa Mural

 Another mural from Moerewa - this one painted by artist A. Dunn in 2015. It shows a Maori woman with a Ta moko (chin tattoo) which symbolizes family history and tribal affiliations along with a design flowing from the bottom to the top on the left hand side.

Ngapuhi Minds

 One of local shops in Moerewa has this mural on the front. I was unable to find out who painted it but the words "Ngati Hine Health Trust" are painted within it so maybe they have something to do with it. The trust was formed in 1987 to help address the health needs of local Maori to the area. The Ngapuhi tribe is associated with the Northland region of New Zealand centred mainly in Whangarei, Hokianga and the Bay of Islands.

So as Covid makes it's way continually around the world, the so called travel bubble we had going on with certain states in Australia seems to have blown up. One traveller, who apparently started feeling unwell on the plane over here from Sydney (I think) visited more than several places in Wellington (who is now in level 2) and now we are waiting to see if any cases come up. Somehow I don't think this so called travel bubble is a wise idea...
