Tall Ships, Auckland

The Tall Ships were visiting Auckland over Labour Weekend, and were sailing on the Waitemata on our holiday Monday.  We climbed North Head, along with hundreds of others, and were rewarded with a good views of the action.  The spectator fleet was also impressive.  I took numerous photos, and the hardest thing was narrowing it down to just a couple to publish.

I don't know enough about boats to tell you what sort they are.

The yellow hulled craft is a Maori waka.

I like the contrast of the container ship in the background.  ( I am many miles away at this point, but like the idea of them sailing off into the distance.)
