"Auckland" Auckland by Lerie

Never dream I'll visit this area and wish I'd travelled South of NZ as well but time was limited. I hope I'll do so some day because that's the areas with the most picturesque view ! I don't understand why two of the Australian Travel Agent recommeded us to go North when asked for their opinion ? It was with much regrets that we landed in the North ! There weren't anything much to see here, though there may be plenty of fun thing to do I'm sure. I'd learned to always do your checking and homework before you go on a tour !

Plenty of such view ( dead volcano lava , smoke & sulfer smell ) in almost every corner of Routura , it can be quite depressing. As it makes you envision some kind of tragic happening of the past. It's been called non active volcano now but still with plenty of smoke and smell around.

On the lighter note, here is one of the world greatest spa.
Hot spring spa treatement was delightful ! This, the only place that filled the void and the disappointment of coming here to Auckland. NZ, don't worry, I hope I can make it to see your beautiful South, I heard it is phenomenal ! I can't wait to go over !
