28th September 2008: Auckland Museum

We decided to have a quiet weekend in Auckland, before the next four weeks of frenzied activity...

Had a nice walk in the warm sunshine to the Auckland Museum, which is in the middle of the Auckland Domain. It's nominally a war memorial museum, but has lots of other exhibits too, including some interesting Maori stuff and a good section on volcanoes. There's a clever audio-visual presentation on what would happen if a new volcano erupted in the Auckland region.

We saw about half the museum - need to go back another time.
