Another extinct volcano to climb for a view of the Auckland skyline.
An easier route down!
A Pohutukawa tree holding up a wall!
Bananas grow in Auckland?!!
If you look closely you can see someone getting ready to jump off the tower, and the guide instructing them! We were on a busy street far below and watched as they completed the jump!
Our new car, A Toyota Aqua that talks to us in Japanese.
Mount Mangere, an extinct volcano, walking distance from our B&B.
From Oregon to Seattle!
From Seattle to LA.
A quick stop in Tahiti!
Back in New Zealand!
It’s a lot quieter at the airport when you arrive in winter!
We arrived at Vancouver Pacific Central Station in the early morning hours and enjoyed our last breakfast served in the dining car before we disembarked at around 7:30 am.
The Park Car at the back of train as we headed into the station.
We had a short time frame to catch the local public transportation to the airport for our flight back to the US.
We quickly left the station and headed the one block to the express elevated train to the airport.
We had a layover in the airport where we enjoyed the local, vibrant art displayed.
And soon we were on our way, flying into Seattle!
Another flight took us directly to Redmond/Bend where we arrived at about 3pm!
And soon we were admiring the canal in our own backyard!
A year of travel! What an ADVENTURE!
