Operation Become Fit was still happening (past tense because it has been shelved while the parents are here and the needle on the scales is moving more towards the right as we speak... darn it) so we went for a walk at One Tree Hill... or No Tree Hill is probably more accurate these days..... some dude took an axe to the tree years ago to make some kind of a political statement.
Ground level:
Halfway up the hill:
It was a lovely sunny day and we could see Rangitoto Island clearly from across the dried up tree tops:
The sheep have an easy life...
The monument on top of the Hill:
Can you spot Sky City Tower?
The public is always making messages using the rocks at the base of the hill...
Spotted this lazy sheep feeding while resting on its front legs... it was moving around while kneeling too... looked funny... turned out it had sore front legs... poor sheep.
Spotted this little girl in her bright raincoat and gumboots...
I think Frodo is hiding around here somewhere...
The place was littered with sheep and cow poo... I stepped in one and shrieked my head off...
I present to you... Exhibit A:
Back on ground level again:
I love this tree...
On the way out, I drove past these guys and had to stop and take a pic... where's Fabio and his wench I wonder?
Dude had muscly legs..
