Auckland Art Gallery

Arriving at the Auckland Art Gallery was easy.  Auckland is such a small city.  
When Nora took one look at what we were going to be spending our day looking at she stomped her feet and yelled "Oh my God, I don't like this.  This is going to be boring. I want to go somewhere else."  Meanwhile, she placed her arm up on the paintings as if to knock them down.  We knew the fun was about to begin.  
But she warmed up to the idea at looking at NZ art and European art and Evan just soaked it all up like a sponge.  Then the little kids corner was fun and they spent an hour doing an arts and craft project with the rest of the kids at the gallery.  Best part was that it was free!  And they even let us eat our packed lunch in the art cafe, because it was raining outside.  
Nora ended up getting jealous that I was explaining everything to Evan, so I told her to shush up and pay attention.  She did.  :)

Bridal Veil Falls, Raglan NZ



You start at the top and work your way down.  It's an easy 10 min. walk, so Nora loved it.


At the very top






How about a little shower???
