following the bike trip i returned to auckland and spent a couple of days before hitting the road in a four wheeled vehicle rather than a two-er.

very few pickup trucks in NZ (or, AU for that matter), instead they have "utes".

view of auckland from rangitoto island. (if you go, take the tractor ride rather than the walk. not much to see before ya' get to the top other than a dusty road.)

but, along the dusty road you'll find a few ancient lava flows.

auckland bay.

school kids. they wear uniforms.
