Auckland Fireworks

The Indian Festival of Lights (Diwali) was this past weekend and concluded with a nice fireworks display. The festival was held at the Auckland Viaduct. Sarah and I went to the festival and enjoyed some great food and interesting sights. After visiting the festival, we took a ferry across the harbour to Devonport. This picture was taken at about 10:15pm near the Devonport wharf where we were waiting for the last ferry of the day. (The Sky Tower is pink because it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.)

Ghost in the Cave

Sarah and I explored the caves of North Head in Devonport. The caves were part of a network of military defenses that protected the Auckland Harbour.
