Red sky at night, shepherds delight, red sky in the morning shepherds warning! It is true, the day turned to greyness with slight drizzle, but for half an hour it was very nice :)

This thumbnails title is Lyall Bay Beach.Lyall Bay Beach.

So hard getting things like the waves lining up with stitched pictures like this one, made up of 7 pictures, it covers over 180 degrees. The airport is to the left, and the building on the beach is the surf club. There's people hitting a ball about with a cricket bat, seagulls sitting on the sand, and there's even a plane coming into land :) Oh I nearly forgot the ferry out there on the horizon!
Lyall Bay Beach, Wellington.

This thumbnails title is View From Paekakariki Hill.View From Paekakariki Hill.

Always a favourite view this one, the road that leads to this lookout point is a windy and fairly narrow one that goes from Paekakariki to the Hutt Valley. We are looking West here, but the left is nearly South and right hand side is North. To the left you can see the South Island faintly on the horizon, the island you can see is Kapiti, and the little town to the right is Paekakariki itself.
Paekakariki, Wellington.

This thumbnails title is Auckland City.Auckland City.

Coming into Auckland from the north you are basically stuck to travelling on motorway if you want to go across the harbour bridge, so when I stopped at a large layby area next to the motorway I was waiting for the visit from a passing police car, but they didn't show up fortunately. Anyway this is the tall bit of the largest city in little old New Zealand.
Auckland City.

This thumbnails title is The Main Road.The Main Road.

Rawhiti peninsular, if you could call it that, really a globule sticking out from the base of the considerably larger Brett Peninsular. The kids playing like kids do, what a great playground! Two pictures stuck together making it equivalent to maybe 10mm(16mm)

This thumbnails title is Cape Maria Van Diemen.Cape Maria Van Diemen.

Cape Maria Van Diemen, where the old lighthouse was built in 1879, however due to difficulties of getting to the light in rougher weather the new light was built on Cape Reinga in 1941. In particular, in 1933 when the assistant keepers wife was swept off the rocks, the radio operator jumped in to the waves to rescue her, and they were both, sadly, drowned.

I was enchanted by this little place and it blessed me with one of the greatest sunsets I think I have seen. It was not so spectacular, but it was extraordinary.

The sleepy little gathering of houses that is Tapora. It is so quiet here that you can actually hear yourself think! I bet people know their neighbours here to!
