The great people in Whangarei
I put this post on FB last Saturday. It has been very popular so I have decided to share it here on neighborly. as below.
Feeling blessed today I went into the Whangarei CBD on my mobility scooter went to my favorite cafe Fresh for takeouts the staff were lovely. I sat on my scooter in the sun and watched the shoppers go by while I ate.
So many smiling happy people, then off to Motown for a haircut and more happy people.
Then Pak N Save again on my mobility scooter, it can be difficult to reach high areas 4 different women helped me at different times all with a smile.
Then headed home while going through the town basin my hat blew off, by the time I was able to turn around a young lady asked if she could get it for me.
All assistance today was appreciated thank you the people of Whangarei
