A group of 35 people met at the carpark beside the duckpond at Auckland Domain for an interesting night
walk. We set out at 7:15pm and circumnavigated the duckpond. In one place we saw a goose, as well as
admired the vegetation with our torches and headlamps.

From there we went up alongside the wintergardens and past another pond and a large sculpture before
going on to the Auckland Museum all lit up in red splendour. We walked around the museum before stopping
for a group photo near the cenotaph. After admiring the view of central Auckland by night we went back
down to the duckpond carpark and on to Lovers Lane.

down to the duckpond carpark and on to Lovers Lane. This was a bush track that followed down a gully
with a stream. It was now time to dim our lamps - there were heaps of glow worms lining the side of the
track like a starry night. We did a little circuit around some bush tracks near the bottom before returning
back up the track to enjoy the glow worms once more.
