A couple of images of #Gisborne’s palm-lined town centre, with heritage architecture (📷1&2). Beside the port is a vandalised statue of Capt. James Cook (📷3) who sought provisions here, but fled without any—having slain local Māori after misinterpreting a traditional challenge as hostile; thus, Poverty Bay got its name. The plains south of the city contain vineyards & extensive corn fields (📷4).
