A walk in Turnbull Thomson Park | Invercargill

https://youtube.com/shorts/cNppdeMNqNQ?si=7COX1tBEaAhslZ6J

I was back in Invercargill in mid February, actually I traveled on Valentine's Day.

I spent about five days in Invercargill and had an official day there.

Keen to explore the Park close to the motel and not in the mood to drive, I took a walk at the Turnbull Thomson's, it isn't a big Park but nice covered with tall trees providing shades.

The boys in the photo walked up to me for a selfie, they seem excited to see an African considering Africans aren't much in New Zealand, I get the stare and look frequently even from the little ones in church and it amuses me.

The way I feel about it is cool, though, it feels cool being the minority in a country where Africans are not much, and the look I get most of the time is with smiles 😀

Looks like a lovely little park to walk through.
Hahaha interesting they came up to you, asking a selfie. I can imagine you getting some looks when there are nit many africans on the islands. Must be amusing at times.

Have a wonderful evening Joe 😊

Amazing place all around, love the greenery and the sun lit areas.
I think you'll get used to the stare, eventually, glad it's accompanied with smiles :)
