Takaparawha Point

Yes, I managed to escape and go sightseeing again. The problem has actually been trying to find some time at the computer to be non-productive.

Auckland is currently experiencing what they refer to as summer – today we managed something like a balmy 22°C. This sure ain’t Australia, there were actually Kiwi’s on the beach – not just tourists.

This photo is the pier at Takaparawha Point a little way down the Harbour Coast from Auckland – with unobstructed views of Rangitoto Island.

Rangitoto is the youngest of the Auckland volcanic cones, erupting around 600 years ago.
