Our fourth (and final) Easter in NZ was celebrated in the company of our dear Canadian comrades. After celebrating many a holiday, birthday, and festival together, and journeying quite closely with each other over these past three years, it’s hard imagine not being here for special gatherings like this.
Never easy but when the time comes, we all go forward, it’s all good!

That party at the Winstone Club in Auckland was so bad it was good.
Interesting pants. Fun shot!

First stop we take the ferry to Devonport, a quaint seaside village on the north shores. I immediately rechristen it Wallasey as the neighbouring ferry is going to Birkenhead. I can’t help wondering if the person who named it came from Liverpool and was likening the journey to a ferry across the Mersey. Wallasey, sorry Devonport, is a laid back place full of Victorian wooden villas, little shops, galleries and cafe bars. We give the village centre a wide berth and walk along the front in the direction of Cheltenham Beach. We take a detour on route to North Head, an old navy fort on the site of an extinct volcano. We follow the footpath to the summit, which only takes around 15 minutes, and enjoy fine views of Auckland harbour, Rangitoto Island and Cheltenham beach. Periodically we come across old guns and watch towers from when it was an active military installation. Apparently they prepared and trained for an invasion that never came.
Nice shot, must be wonderful around there!

The first really hot weekend we’ve had in Auckland, New Zealand since I moved here in March. We went down to Cheltenham Beach to catch the sun. The tide was low and the water was really clear and beautiful. That island you can see in the distance is Rangitoto. Beautiful day!
Beautiful day for sure and great shots!

Taken at Campbells Bay on Auckland’s North Shore on the first summer beach day of the year, (well that was the consensus anyway)!
Looks a bit wintery but beautiful there!

Looks like a beautiful spot to just relax!
