With split loyalties (Kiwi residents, Hannah's Irish descendents), we sat firmly on the fence:

In complete contrast was the fantastic weather we've had this weekend. After a lazy Saturday recovering from a busy week, we decided to do the 16km Coast to Coast Walkway today (Sunday). This track takes you from Manukau Harbour to Auckland Harbour, passing through One Tree Hill, Mt Eden and the Auckland Domain, finishing at the Viaduct.
