Today after spending the night in Auckland, New Zealand I ate breakfast and left on a tour called "Devonport & North Shore". We left the ship and toured parts of the city that I had not seen before as this was the third time that I visited Auckland. We crossed the harbor bridge and before arriving in Devonport we saw various areas of the north shore with some photo stops for a view of Auckland and a stop at Mt. Victoria, the tallest volcano on Auckland's North Shore. We also saw the location of the New Zealand Navy and after a tour of Devonport which is noted for it its colonial wooden architecture. The bus driver dropped us off at the boat terminal where we could stay in Devonport or return to the boat terminal located near the ship. When I got back to the ship's area I took some additional pictures and returned to the ship.
The ship left Auckland at 6 PM and I took some pictures while we were leaving the area.
After dinner, the show was put on by Peter Cousens. He is an Australian singer and he played the Phantom on London's West End as well as other roles in Broadway and the London's West End.
