Auckland Day Trip - 2

So after the zoo we navigated our way into town to the Sky Tower.  (Note to self and all: Never move to auckland unless you enjoy oneway streets, confusing motorways, and being lost in general!)  I've been to it before, and so has Tui, but never inside.  Malachi was super excited about going in the big tower, until he saw the glass platform, then he lost the plot and freaked out.  He wouldn't go anywhere near the windows.  Vili thought it was great! (I feel bad for the cleaners that had to get rid of the handprints and slobber my baby left all over the glass.)  I don't think it was worth $30 per person (thank goodness for coupons!), but was very cool.  Good way to see all of Auckland.





In the elevator going up, which went up 50 floors in like 20 seconds - very fast!



The view from the top.









This glass was 30cm (I think that's like 12inches??) thick.  But it was so trippy to stand on!! And even though I KNEW it was safe, I still hesitated. Malachi freaked out. Vili loved that he could see the cars beneath him.









Leaning on the glass was a bit of a push.  Tui wouldn't do it.  I only did it to make him feel stink. Lol. The photos dont do it justice.  I was like lying on a wall of glass leaning over the city. Crazy.



The very best part of the day was going to see my Grandparents.  My Pop is coming to the end of his mortal adventure, so it was nice to see him, and to give my Nana a big hug.   The boys love them.
