NEW ZEALAND: DAY 3: AUCKLAND
Since the weather in Auckland was still unstable, me and Mexican-Canadian couple went to visit Auckland War Memorial museum.
After the tour, I decided to take a quick look at some nearby "mountains" or more accurately, remains of the volcanoes.

Let those who come after see to it that their names be not forgotten." |
