So, after climbing around One Tree Hill I decided to walk to Mt Eden to admire its famous views of the city. Again, my ridiculous ablity to walk for hours (and several kilometers!) in flip-flops came in handy. (Boy, did my feet hurt that night!) It was delightful walking through the leafy neighborhoods of Epsom and Mt Eden, the houses were a mixture of gorgeous dream homes with hedges and quaint cottages with gardens spilling over their fences.
Lining the neighborhoods were adorable little "main st." shops and cafes.

Starting up the hill, looking down on the shops.
Mt. Eden is one of the many old volcanos.. this is the crater.
Compass showing directions and distances around the world from this point. Central Auckland visible in the distance. I'm only 10,500KM away... :)
