From Parnell through the Auckland Domain

I'll be a man of 'relatively' few words with this post. I'll just tell you about it and then let you look at the pictures. They're mostly of trees. 

I took the train to Parnell and then walked up through the forest that lies between it and the Auckland Domain. That's where the War Memorial Museum and the Wintergarden are. The Domain is a really big park. 

This first picture is the tunnel leading to the walk up to Parnell. The second 'tunnel' is one of  much nicer sort. It's the one I took.   

You'll note that it was a perfect day for this walk. (and pre-COVID-19)  

In later posts, I'll show you the Wintergarden and some shots along my walk to the Grafton Train Station for the ride home.  

What a ligneous life-form huh? 

I think to call this just a tree is almost an insult. Standing this close to it, I wouldn't want to make it mad.  

I think these two are the antithesis of the ligneous life form. They ought to be called

I hope you enjoyed it.  Next stop, the Wintergarden.                        -djf
