Whilst our trip to Auckland was only very short we managed to fit in a bit of sightseeing. On our first day we jumped about the tourist pickup/dropoff bus which is always a good way to see a city and the main hightlights quickly, without having to worry about getting lost or disorientated.
First stop was a lovely park which gave us a great veiw back to Auckland.
Suprisingly, as the next bus came to pick us up onboard were none other than Val and Tony who we were meeting up with that evening at the races!
Next stop was the Penguin/Aquarium display. Peter got into the act of riding a skidoo!
The penguins were an absolute highlight. So cute!
That brown one on the left is the baby!
Watch out for the shark Peter!!!
Beautiful blue skies and a view towards Auckland.
Parnell - some cute shops here...
The Auckland Sky Tower... its mandatory isn't it when visiting a place with a tower like this that you go up it?
Wow.... looking through the glass floor of the sky tower!
Stunning views of the water and surrounding countryside of Auckland. Our hotel is in the foreground on the water!
This is one of the main dining areas in Auckland....
Heading up towards the Ferry Terminal....
