     The last thing on our list for Auckland was climbing Mt. Eden, it is one of 40 Volcanoes that were formed here 30K-40K years ago. This mountain is the highest point in the Auckland area and provides an awesome 360 degree view...just past the village we found the track and made our way to the top. A visitors guide named Tom was extremely friendly and filled with information. After pictures, and scouting around the crater, Tom escorted us to the visitor center where we compared pictures from 130 years ago to the one's we took today...wow. It's always nice when you have someone that can answer every question you have.
