Excellence In New Zealand Advertising #2. Originally I just skated all the way downtown just to take a picture of this sign because I saw it last night and thought it was hilarious.
Then I decided to skate around and take some photos. In the middle of downtown they have this really cool pedestrian bridge.
With tons of places to sit and chill and read books and whatever.
And it also has some sort of secret love cave. I think this is where you get the second best handjob in town.
Surf's up bro. This thing is fun.
This is on the other side of the bridge. This is a little courtyard thing in front of the city art gallery. The courtyard leads right to the main library too, which is an amazing library. They have the Johhny Thunders biography, Lou Reed bio, Iggy Pop bio, and a bunch of Bukowski that you have to go to a special desk to ask for that has a goddamn super model working at it who will talk to you about Bukowski. DOING! Actually the whole library has tons of babes working.
This is on the other side of the library and art gallery, the bridge leads you across a busy street, and then you are at the long stretch of the coast of the ocean. It's really nice down there.
This is the museum right along the coast. It's huge and it's free. We went there briefly and it had so much good stuff. We ran out of time, but plan to make a whole day of it some other day. (The art gallery I was talking about earlier is also free.)
Some shots of downtown.
"Samson wuz here."
Inglewood Place, always up to no good in yo' face.
You'd think that if you were so into Ian Curtis that you would graffiti a huge tribute to him, you would at least get your dates right. (It's 1956-1980.) I guess Budgie "rulz" a lot less than he thinks.
Oh oh oh ohhhhh oh, my little China Grill. You know? China Girl by Bowie? Well, me and Jarrad think it's hilarious.

China Girl by Iggy, you ding dong.
(Actually, it very well may be by Bowie, considering it was written during the period when they were 69-ing and circle jerking their way around Berlin.)
Yeah, Iggy recorded it first, but it was written by Bowie for Iggy while they were blowing eachother's dongs. Bowie later went on to record it himself on Let's Dance, and found way more success with it. I'm sure it hit the top ten, and I am surprised that you don't know that version. It's a classic 80s jam.
I also enjoy the Bowie version quite a bit more.
wheres the pics of the supermodel librarians, you ding dong......
fuck architecture......let's see some NZ hotties!!
