New Zealand Sabbatical

This is a picture of our street that shows fall colors in the distance and bright colored waste bins in the foreground ground. Every Wednesday we take a red bin (rubbish), a green bin (compostables) and a yellow bin (recyclables) to the curb and trucks drive by with robotic arms to empty these with extreme efficiency. This country is very good at reducing landfill items and finding a use for much of the refuse. This country is impressive even with mundane tasks.
