My Actifit Report Card: May 9 2019
A round about walk to work but less zigzagging and some snaps on the way
It’s another evening and time for another Actifit post, I will include another map of my walk at the end of this post after a few photos of what I passed this morning
I saw this building with scaffolding up on it, found it interesting that the scaffolding is just around the corners of the buildings in this case, generally it all around the building

In Comments with @hangin I have said I would try Avocado toast sometime, I am not sure f this is what he meant, I may have been foolishly thinking it was toast made somehow from avocados where as this was Avocado on toast, but I decided there was no time like the present so I did pass my activity tracking and gave it a try, and it was OK, but not really somehting I would try to often,I guess I am not really a fan of Avocado, whichI should have known as I have never been a fan of Guacamole LOL

Now in the parks around the city there are many trees and green areas, but in some locations space is limited, at ground level outside so here are a couple of options to deal with that
Have them indoors with an open area and seating

Or put them up on the first floor off the street

And this is the corner of what I believe to be the GE Building, what made me now that the first timeI saw it was the GE symbol on the clock, its a pretty cool building with some ornate detail, which I now thatI think about it have not taken or shared shots of it, that’s something I must do one day

And now to finish off with the route map of my walk this morning, I note I did not zig and zag as much this morning as I normally do, but it also doesn’t show me crossing back and forth across the street when I get a red light and cant cross continuing growth along one side of the road I generally cross across the street and then continue down the street when the lights change on the other side, I just have a thing with standing still even waiting for the pedestrian crossing lights to change LOL

Cathedral architecture with modern buildings behind and to the side makes a great composition.
Old GE building appears to have a lot more to tell with a camera on hand, plenty of unique detail and design on that one as well.
Toast and avo for breakfast a big no, no (plenty available growing here). Avocado with sprinkling of brown sugar as a mid morning fruit (on very rare occasions when given the fruit). Had my fill on bacon and avo toasted sandwiches living with friends many years ago, prefer to stick with boiled eggs and tomato on toast.
Yes I must go and get shots of the GE building sometime it’s got such character
I have tried the avocado toast thing now I nice is enough for me boiled eggs on toast is what i will go for when I want something different I enjoy that
Durban city has some charming old architecture, sadly I have not gone into the city in over ten years, no photography of the buildings.
I have a friend at work from Durban and he is always telling me how cool parts of the city are
Have a great weekend ;)
WHAT! Avocado toast is so good. Especially with a little bit of salt and pepper on it. It's like hard boiled eggs and toast but creamier. I am a fan of guacamole though, so I guess to each his own!
YEs Each to their own I guess I will take hard boiled eggs on toast myself LOL
Remember i am weird Never have hot drinks either
I agree with you. Never too many avocados for us around here.
You don't like guacamole, oh my goodness @tattoodjay, lol I have to say I am a huge fan of guac, I could eat it for a meal, in fact sometimes I do! :) Love those pics of the GE building, the detail around the windows is amazing, so much time and energy involved to create that feature. I'm sure you're more than happy spring is finally springing, now you can get out and about with our fine camera and new lens! Woohoo!
I know I am weird right, NO Peanut Butter, NO Guac, never have hot drinks or coffee and tea and allergic to chocolate,
That GE building is so cool I am not sure how I ever noticed the detail before , I must try to get back there and get shots of the building with my camera soon
and Yes I have been loving spring
Same here.
Thanks for the resteem and support !tip

Wow, you are surrounded by concrete my friend, all the reason why you should eat more Avocado's. Try them raw with a bit of salt.
Healthy stuff!
Blessings!
Ohh yes in the city yes not so where I live
I will find other healthy hints to have Avocado is not for me

Haha, I do think that is what he meant - avocado smashed and spread onto bread - the healthy conscious here also eat that; I haven't actually had it though... I love that you have old churches amongst newer buildings - I hope they don't change that! Hmmm, now that we also have gardens within buildings and above certain levels, it makes me think my city here is becoming too developed... I guess I should be happy they still maintain some green no matter how... That GE building seems to have brick all the way up... wow! Cheers, and Happy Friday!! :)
Ok cool at least now I can say I have tried it but it’s not for me
Yes NYC has an interesting mix and I think some of the older buildings are classified as historic buildings so have to be maintained and kept which I to feel is a good thing
The GE building is that style all the way up I must go and get more shots of it
Another great walk! Nice timing on the GE building, I am starting a series on Art Deco and the effect on Motorcycle design! I just LOVE those details.
And I'm like you. Avo toast is fine, but who wouldn't rather have some hash brown potatoes and eggs and bacon with your toast. I just can't believe it's such a big deal...
Thanks for a great walkabout today.
Looking forward to your Art Deco and bikes post my hometown back in NZ or I guess I should say where I grew up it’s not really my hometown anymore is very much into Art Deco infact they call it the Art Deco capital of NZ
I guess it’s that way as in 1931 a 7.8 earthquake hit and damaged most of the city and so much was rebuilt then and that was a big Art Deco era
I am with you on breakfast avocado is a big health fad at the moment but one I won’t be joining lol
Wow 15 k is legit! I always enjoyed the pics and stories people are building into their actifit posts. So neat to share some of the thousands of steps people are enjoying.
Well done man!

Thanks I thought I had less today I was surprised when I went to do the post and saw the number i thought I had done less than yesterday LOL
Before I started on Actifit I seldom used my iphone camera, now I use it most days, I try to keep a similar format to my photography posts for the actifit ones, just using my cell phone for shots most days
