The old Auckland hospital; it's high enough up that it's visible from a long way away. No idea why it has such a huge smokestack next to it -- maybe there's a really nasty furnace somewhere in there.

The tree under which Julia did her post-run stretching until the ground became too damp for that sort of thing. Weird how it looks like the hospital (top right) is falling into the earth..

Lovers Walk, an alternative way to the top of the Domain to the Centennial Pathway. It's impressive how un-park-like it feels here, they've done a good job of letting it get back to nature. (or at least faking it well enough to fool the likes of me).

Further up, there's more of a real path.

A flower somewhere in the Domain.

It's hard to tell if this flower is meant to have these blotches on it -- it looks like it's being eaten by fungus/insects/something, but they all seem perfectly healthy otherwise.

The Centennial Pathway that leads from the bottom of Stanley St up into the domain. It's a lot steeper than it looks in this shot, and even when walking on it -- the trees aren't vertical enough to give any sense of slope, it's just when you get to the top and are exhausted that you realise it..
