New beginnings in NZ

1954

Contributor's note: "My late mother-in-law, Riet, recently arrived from The Netherlands and just married, enjoying a quiet moment outside her rented flat on Worcester St. The building was demolished recently - it was opposite the Arts Centre (then the university). A fresh start for my in-laws after the German occupation and the Hunger Winter during WWII."
