Papakura



Day 13, Tuesday, January 24, 2006. Strong winds, heavy rain, all day. No matter, we drove east to the Miranda Nationalist Trust, a sanctuary of migratory birds, on Firth of Thames, southeast of Auckland Harbour. The birds were lying low in the wind and rain and so were we. This photo of Sharron braving the elements shows a flash of yellow and orange on the right. That was the last I saw of my umbrella. The interpretive centre was excellent describing the migration routes of hundreds of species of birds from New Zealand to Siberia and Alaska. This is Nelson, Hugh and Rae's dog.
