The New Zealand Experience 2007

Auckland, North Island

We arrived Wednesday morning and went to the hotel to rest. Later we went out to see the town and looked around the shops. Next day we visited the Sky Tower, had a very good breakfast and enjoyed the view, then wandered around before heading South.

You have to go into the Sky Tower and go to the top balcony - they do a great breakfast downstairs too

 

A Maori sea going canoe is on display inside the tower, or at least half of one

Looking through the glass floor makes you feel you are in mid-air   Looking out from the Sky Tower over Auckland

People can pay around 220 NZD to jump from the Sky Tower on a controlled safety line

 

This old church is now part of one of the best universities in New Zealand

The Sky Tower at night. You need to be there to enjoy it but hey, do your best   After checking out the bridge to the west we went back and started our journey south to the Kiwi House
