Auckland War Memorial Museum

Inside Auckland Domain is the Auckland War Memorial Museum which despite its name is a museum of New Zealand history. The war memorial itself is a sombre reminder of all those who have lost their lives in battle and is genuinely moving.

Elsewhere there is fascinating insights into Maori culture from before their arrival in Aotearoa. An excellent piece on volcanoes and their fascinating beauty but equally devastating affect on the New Zealand landscape.

We had a fantastic time here before catching the bus which gave Daniel the opportunity to demonstrate his 'cool' way of flagging down a bus.

You can see a fabulous Haka performed by Maoris at the museum here.
