Whanganui View Point

On the north side of Whanganui, there is a high

point, with parking, built for in order to provide a view

of the city.

I was there last weekend and was attracted not by the view so much, but by a large structure

with the names of cities and landmarks from all over the world, and the distances

from that precise point to them, in miles.

Tokyo was the only Asian city shown.

I think that I particularly noticed New Plymouth's name

because that is where I have a home.
