A walk in Burkenhead, Auckland, New Zealand

A 4 hour walk in the little small town Birkenhead. What hit me most is the ressemblance mix of a bit of Sweden and a bit of the Pacifics. It was no more than max. 19 degrees when I arrived on March 4. The very next day no more than 20 degrees, cloudy and a few showers. Freezing a lot in the beginning but getting used to the climate chnage slowly and to put my jeans on. It feels rather nice to be in a civilized country but I do long back to Fiji, the heat and to my partner Tony there.


Some pictures from my accommodation and my walk........
