Spending in Auckland almost all the time since I came to New Zealand, it is a hard question to me if I miss sceneries in Japan. I am missing out beautiful sceneries of New Zealand in the first place!
However, one thing for sure I am missing is the vividness of Japanese scarlet maples in late autumn. I realised it when I was asked the question from one of my colleagues recently.
In spring, we can enjoy beautiful cherry blossoms in One Tree Hill, however, in this time of the year, Waitakere Ranges would not become aflame with autumn colours.
Nevertheless, I am enjoying the late autumn in Auckland since I recently moved to the office in Auckland City Hospital and walking in Auckland Domain was added to my daily routines.
