Sorry about the crappish pictures I didn't take.
Takapuna, North Shore City- (Auckland)
View of Rangitoto from Takapuna Beach, close to where my house is. Auckland has a lot of volcanoes.

In the opposite direction is the city. Russel Crowe went to high school just south of here. But you ozzies can claim him for yourselves. Auckland's actual 'city' goes no further than the central business district. The rest is just sprawling suburbia. Major transport issues.

Harbour bridge I bus over to get to university. I've also bungy jumped off it a couple of times.

My god some of those pictures have me homesick. Haven't been back to Canada for years. Tulips look good in front of parliament. I remember getting lost on the Rideau during winterlude once when I was little. Ice sculptures and eating beaver tails or whatever those cinnamon things are called. Slightly different climate to where I am now.
