The top of Mount Eden
February 19, 1994
We returned to the city, and drove up the steep side of Mount Eden, one of
the highest of the volcanic cones that Auckland is built on. At the top, we
looked down into the cinder code, now grassed over and serving as a home for
a number of cows.

From the crater rim, we had spectacular panoramic views of
all parts of the city, and both harbors.

longer, or return to today's table of
