Today is Wednesday 29th April and we have now passed the halfway mark of our GSE experience.
An early departure this morning to drive to Gulf harbour so we could catch the ferry to Tiritiri Matangi Island. This is an open sanctuary and provides an opportunity for visitors to see some of the rarest birds in the world plus a few additional species of lizards.
Some 280,000 trees have been planted on this sanctuary by some thousands of volunteers. Our guide was Marie who was one of the GSE outward bound team members to India. The team had a great day and returned late in the afternoon to prepare for a Rotary meeting at Birkinhead.
Birkinhead is a friendly Club with a great view of the Auckland city. Off hone by 8pm...another busy day awaits
