Sunday morning - farewell Auckland, looking to the Northlands
Monday, 8 October 2018 12:01 amHello! I have been promising a proper post and not doing it, but now it's Sunday morning, I have no work deadlines until Tuesday night, and I have half an hour before the SuperShuttle picks me up to head for the airport where I'll pick up a car and then drive north!
I've been in Auckland for six days, which seems a bit odd when most people fly through on their way to other places, but I wanted a bit of time to breathe after the chaos of family in Australia, and to be able to look around as well as get on with work. I wanted to get a bit of a feel for the place, rather than just glancing at it. So I did look around, and this is what I saw... *g*
Sunday
I walked down to the waterfront, where there was a boat show going on, then to have a look in the Maritime Museum - and I couldn't resist going for a "heritage sail" around the bay. I even got to help hoist the sails when we set off! *g* All very beautiful...



Plus I've found the panorama function on my phone... *vbg*
