Today we headed south west to Ambury Regional Park on the Manukau Harbour. The main feature of the park is the farm centre where there were several recently born lambs.
They also milk their cows everyday to feed the calves, lambs and piglets.
This is the view from the park over to Mangere Mountain, an extinct volcano, that we were later to climb.
From the original crater rim, you can see down into the crater and the point of eruption. The mound in the middle is a lava mound.
The view also shows the number of extinct volcanos around Auckland - from left to right, Mt Eden, (Sky Tower is then in the distance), One Tree Hill with the obelisk, and to the right in the distance, Rangitoto.
