From what I've seen of Auckland... not really a big fan. It's big and clean, but very metropolitan. Since I didn't want to pad around the city all day, I decided to take a boat to Devonport, which is about 10 minutes away by ferry. It was a nice little ride, and the town was very small and cute, and has amazing views of Auckland...
I also learned all about "Bruno," the city dog that thinks it's a person! His owners have tried to confine him, but he keeps getting away, and is known by the whole town. He gets on buses and boats all on his own - like a real life Benji. Too funny!
It wasn't a very exciting day, as you can tell, but it was nice to relax and just kinda walk around and wander. I did climb to the top of Mt. Victoria, which was a bit of a trek, and the views up there were even better than those from the ground:
Tomorrow, it's off to Rangitoto. It's a volcanic island about 35 minutes from Auckland :). More to come tomorrow! Miss you all!
(and congrats, Cowboys!)
