we let kezia skip swimming this morning as we had a full day of exercise planned walking up rangitoto
The boat ride was a bit chilly as we sat on the shady side, but once we arrived and started walking we soon warmed up
kezia and i shared my camera and took a photo of each other’s face as we handed the camera over so we knew which photos were whose
as a result there are a few photos of me. look at the state of my hair
we had lunch at the top, looking away from teh city
it’s funny seeing landmarks we know all slightly out of sync with each other
it was an hour’s direct climb to get up to the top. and we came back down round the side which is a good 3 hour walk
it’s interesting to walk among the lose scoria fields. most have been populated by a pohutakawa forest, but some areas are just rocks
not many clouds
good idea to have a fire ban on a volcano. potentially this one could go off again, so makes sense to warn the ground not to go off again
we were pretty exhausted by the time we got back to the wharf and there was a little bit of sleeping on the boat
when we got back to auckland we had a quick look at the food fair, but it was a bit busy so we came home instead
this evening kezia has been editing her photos from the zoo yesterday
