Today was a day to take a break from our holiday. Catherine and I drove through lovely Auckland and came to a
Chocolate Boutique around noon. I ordered an unbelievably thick drink called "Chilli Denso"... it was like drinking hot fudge with a kick that hits about thirty seconds later.

From there we went to the
Rose Gardens in Parnell and walked through an aritsans festival. I finally bought my first few souveniers. Fun necklaces to remember my time in New Zealand.
Then off to
Little Turkish Cafe on Karangahape Road for lunch. I ate a Lamb Kabob... poor sheepy sheep. After lunch Catherine left me to explore on K'Road and I strolled the streets and found my own way home on foot.

The
Symonds Street Cemetary is built under a bridge and the surrounding area. The most intriguing burial grounds I have seen yet. It almost felt like a park, and most of the dates were in the 1800's.
Walking back to the house, I got a great view of the
SkyTower. A symbol of Auckland. Otherwise, a relaxing day with the Scott family.
Ahhhh! one day sheep on the camera and the next sheep on a stick.... I just love to eat as well I am sure it was good. Blessings. Julie
