We went to Auckland CBD on the weekend, we walked through the Queen street down to the Queens wharf on the Auckland waterfront.

It starts at Queens Wharf on the Auckland waterfront, adjacent to the Britomart Transport Centre and the Downtown Ferry Terminal, and runs increasingly more steeply uphill for almost three kilometres in a mostly straight south-southwesterly direction towards the Karangahape Road ridge, and the residential suburbs in the interior of the Auckland isthmus.

Why the National Library of New Zealand chose WorldShare
Libraries in New Zealand are now sharing data and workflows in Te Puna, their national bibliographic system, using the WorldShare platform. With WorldShare, IT costs are lower and system upgrades and enhancements are seamless. Library users see both a combined view of New Zealand holdings with an option to search globally. Te Puna also allows users from university, public, health, government, law, and research libraries to request items from all participating locations.

AUCKLAND, EXPLORING one of world's most BEAUTIFUL HARBOURS (NEW ZEALAND) ????
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go walk around Waitematā Harbour, which is the main access by sea to the beautiful city of Auckland, New Zealand. For this reason it is often referred to as Auckland Harbour and is crossed by the Auckland Harbour Bridge. The harbour has long been the main anchorage and port area for the Auckland area, even before European colonial times. With a size of 70 square miles, it connects the city's main port and the Auckland waterfront to the Hauraki Gulf, and the Pacific Ocean. It is sheltered from Pacific storms by Auckland's North Shore, Rangitoto Island and Waiheke Island.
New Zealand is a country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean consisting of 2 main islands, both marked by volcanoes and glaciation. Capital Wellington, on the North Island, is home to Te Papa Tongarewa, the expansive national museum. Wellington’s dramatic Mt. Victoria, along with the South Island’s Fiordland and Southern Lakes, stood in for mythical Middle Earth in Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings films.

Hamilton city, New Zealand
Hamilton city, New Zealand
Phillip had a two weeks school holiday in April, so we decided to revisit Hamilton city. It took one and a half hours to get there from Papakura. We visited the Hamilton gardens, Waikato museum and the Hamilton lake domain.
The background music Phillip 4th composition
The information below is from the website
The city of Hamilton is located on the banks of the mighty Waikato River, which is best appreciated from one of the scenic riverside walks or boat cruise. The visually stunning Hamilton Gardens are webbed by paths that journey through a gallery of themed gardens from grand Italy to tranquil Asia. Other city highlights include the Waikato Museum which provides an insight into the areas rich history and the Hamilton Zoo, which provides native birds with enormous freedom in a walk-through free flight aviary. The Zoo also offers visitors 'Face2Face' encounters with exotic animals.
Hamilton's central precinct is easy to walk and packed with cafes, restaurants, a casino and bars where you can wine, dine and dance the night away. The city is also well known as a destination for national and international events from sporting matches such as rugby, cricket, netball, rowing and boxing to concerts and festivals. Annual events such as the National Agricultural Fieldays and Balloons over Waikato festival draw crowds from far and wide.

FROM THE BEACH TO THE BAR | AUCKLAND NEW ZEALAND
A perfect day for the beach here in Auckland, New Zealand. My friends Johanna, Rachel and I headed north just outside of town to the gorgeous Takapuna Beach! It was my first time there and of course the scenery was beautiful - New Zealand never fails to disappoint!
Later on in the evening i got some of the crew together to hang out at Outside Obie - this cool little bar that a lot of us used to drink at when i lived here last year - pure nostalgia! I'm loving every second of my time back here in Auckland there's a few more adventures to come stay tuned!

More information on the Takapuna area from Wikipedia:
Takapuna is a central, coastal suburb of North Shore, Auckland, located in the northern North Island of New Zealand, at the beginning of a south-east-facing peninsula forming the northern side of the Waitematā Harbour.
While very small in terms of population, it was the seat of the North Shore City Council before amalgamation into Auckland Council in 2010 and contains substantial shopping and entertainment areas, being considered the CBD of the North Shore.
The population of the census area of Takapuna Central was 2,811 in the 2006 census, an increase of 291 from 2001. The census area does not include some streets to the west of the CBD which are often considered as part of Takapuna.
Takapuna is located on the isthmus of a peninsula which extends south into the northern waters of the Waitemata at the harbour's eastern end. As such, the suburb has a coastline on Shoal Bay, an arm of the Waitemata to the southwest, as well as having a coast on the Hauraki Gulf to the northeast.
The northern end of the suburb is dominated by the large volcanic crater of Lake Pupuke. Some points in Takapuna are less than 500 metres from all three of these bodies of water. The Hauraki coastline includes a kilometre long crescent shaped beach (Takapuna Beach) which is a popular recreation area.
To the southeast of Takapuna lies the six-kilometre-long peninsula which contains the suburbs of Belmont and Devonport. To the west lie the suburbs of Hillcrest and Northcote. The suburb of Milford lies to the north, on the far shore of Lake Pupuke.
The Māori place name Takapuna originally referred to a freshwater spring that flowed from the base of North Head into a swamp behind Cheltenham Beach.
In 1841 the wife of Eruera Maihi Patuone sold 9500 acres of Auckland's North Shore to the Crown. Referred to as Takapuna Parish, the North Shore was surveyed and subdivided in 1844.
In 1851 Governor Grey gifted back to Patuone 110 acres between the inlet beside Barry's Point Road and Takapuna Beach to use until his death (1872). This area included a Māori settlement known as Waiwharariki, on the small Shoal Bay headland now crossed by Esmonde Road.
The earliest subdivisions of farmland for suburban development were the Hurstmere estate in 1886 and the Pupuke Estate in 1889. The Takapuna and Milford Beach areas, as well as the land surrounding Lake Pupuke soon became popular spots for wealthy businessmen building summer homes to entertain in a rural surrounding, and eventually, many moved here permanently, commuting to work in Auckland via ferry.
A local history archive is maintained by the New Zealand Collection of Takapuna Public Library. It includes an index of the local newspapers, archives, photographs, oral histories, and historical material relating to Takapuna.
The Takapuna Beach area is a nightlife hub and boutique shopping centre of the North Shore, having many bars, restaurants, cafes and shops.
The Block NZ's first season took place in Takapuna. Shania Twain's 2003 music video for When You Kiss Me was also shot in Takapuna.
As a recognised area by council for future intensification, the beachfront will become the backyard for the estimated 15,000 residents and 15,000 employees who will inhabit Takapuna by 2040.
The area has potential in its central business area and wider precincts to further develop into the southern hub of the North Shore.
Hope you guys learnt something new - catch you soon :)
