Tamaki Drive, Auckland

When we reached Auckland, it was not that cold anymore.We visited the parklands and gardens and the Tamaki Drive & Waterfront.

I love this tree..still full of maple leaves!

Love the reflection of the sun

simply amazing clouds

impressive rows of trees

Who wouldn't want to find a shady spot?


No more adventure but sightseeing..

Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
