Our Finlay loves lights and The Light Box installation was definitely on the to do list today. It boasts a unique multi-sensory environment that is filled with an amazing illusion that appears to go all the way to infinity.
.
We found it on Level 1 @westfieldnewmarket and it was free with only a short queue.

A little bush walk right in the midst of Auckland City Life. Massive trees and native bird song as we wheeled along the winding boardwalk. A great spot to find some shade on a warm sunny day.
.
Our Finlay was happy under the shade. Access and parking just left of the Takapuna Cricket Club off Northcote Road. Heaps of parking available ♿️✅

@aklcouncil @visitauckland reviewing accessible walks in NZ We grabbed our standing frame wheels today. Nothing like taking your standing challenge to some nice locations. We found this spot very accessible and on a Saturday parking was in abundance. The place will make a great accessible fishing spot too once the lake regains it’s population.

Two-Queen bedrooms with own accessible roll-in bathrooms. However, it’s biggest draw card will be it’s accessible pool and spa pool. Accessible with ramping and a pool hoist! This is the first NZ visitor accommodation we have ever come across. Can’t wait to share our review over on www.grabyourwheels.nz - this ones a beauty ♿️✅

It was a glorious day and noticed how the City was fast developing this area for hosting the 2021 @americascup - looking forward to see how it transforms. .
We stopped at the Auckland Seafood Market - yum the place has had a renovation so looking forward to showing you some pics of it over on our BLOG real soon. Fantastic spot to take the kids and dine with family and friends for a fresh seafood lunch.
