Rangitoto ...

.......means Bloody Sky in Maori...and is a volcanic island in the Hauraki Gulf. The most recent and largest of the volcanoes in the Auckland region...
The lighthouse keeper used to row his kids to school and back everyday...
no doubt he was very fit ....


Volcanic rock .... I thought it would have been heavier ...

It was quite a hike up ... but the views from the top were absolutely breathtaking!

Everywhere you look there are islands and waterways and yachts and sailboats and kayaks.......

And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. Genesis 1: 10



These holiday cottages are called Baches in NZ, pronounced batches,
really small and cute...typical beachstyle!
