Today is Theme day…
When people think of my City…

Well, I’d like to imagine that people still think of Auckland as the faraway place; and to reach it you’d travel long days at sea on a big cruise liner…
But, I guess these youngsters are thinking on how nice it would be to get out of Auckland on a big cruise liner and visit your city… So there you go!

Please visit the other participating cities, today’s theme day its a real journey of discovery!

I would be one on the boat to Auckland, to me it is someplace far away out of my reach.

nice photo that you have chosen for Theme Day.

Actually, when I think of Auckland, I think of my secondary school teacher who lives there! :-)

Happy Theme Day!

Well, a visit to New Zealand is high on my list of things to do when there aren’t any more things to do. So who knows when. Sure looks an appealing place.

Very nice and interesting twist. I thought you might post the view from Northshore side to look the city (sky tower, bridge and so on).
BTW, I love the picture very much.
