Auckland

What a lovely day Sunday was. We started the day with a little walk through Auckland Domain. Our crazy guide “Beans” told us a lot of interesting and funny things. It was Stephanie who was most enthusiastic – She was the only one to try the berry thingies, yuck!. Joost also tried to eat some plants. Afterwards we went to North Head Historic Reserve where we had a stunning view over the harbour and the Hauraki Gulf. At one time, this place was used by the military as a coastal defence installation, which left a network of accessible old bunkers and tunnels. The tunnels were so dark and scary, but the story behind was pretty cool! Then, we went to our BBQ spot. Before arriving there, we had a lot of  hills we had to go down. A few thought it was easy and they wanted to go down again. Unfortunately Stephanie fell down and everybody saw it – at least she could laugh about it! The BBQ later that day was very tasty! The view was amazing and we went to the beach afterwards. It was low tide so you could walk out into the sea a long way! Lars even found his own “island” that he wanted to protect! Unhappily for him, we had to go to Mount Eden. A great place where you have an incredibly wide view over Auckland. You could see so many things from there. We ended the day with a group photo and some funny stories from our tour guide. Do you want see the photos?
