A couple of weeks ago we got some time out from working at the motels for a walk around the other side of the Manukau Harbour – that’s the other side from Onehunga. We took the car over to Mangere Bridge, the suburb on the other side of the Mangere Bridge (so you can see where the name came from). From there we walked around the waterfront, also known as Kiwi Esplanade. We’ve often walked here on outings from Ambery Farm Park where we’ve been parked up in the past. It’s a secret gem of Auckland with waterfront properties that face the north and the sun.
It was an afternoon with a foreboding sky that finally came to nothing; all talk no action. But that’s OK.
