Auckland, NZ
Today we ventured into the Auckland suburb of Mt. Albert. First we attended church services at Mt. Albert Baptist Church. The church service was remarkably similar to our church services in the U.S. We even sang a lot of the same songs — except maybe with a New Zealand accent!

We also met some very friendly folks at the church service. In particular, a Malaysian family who told us about a local park and offered to give us a ride there. We took them up on their offer, and really enjoyed ourselves at the park.

Lots of different bird breeds we had never seen before roamed freely in the park.
Your guess is as good as ours!
Black Swans?
haha a fluffy chicken!
Glad to hear that both of you enjoyed Western Srpings. I went there just today to feed the ducks.
