Auckland Clocks

We went to Auckland to Watch Nine Inch Nails at the Vector Arena. It’s an hour flight to get there from Wellington. We stayed for 4 days to allow for some sight seeing. Auckland is the biggest city of NZ and houses the majority of the population. While it is certainly more ‘big city’ than Wellington it is still nothing like European big cities. It still has a personality and quirky side streets, lots of heritage, old and new mixed together.

 

Here is my collection of clocks that I spotted in Auckland. All except one are within a few streets of each other.

This is from Parnell – a suburb south east of central Auckland

This is at the harbour just outside the ferry station.
Clock8
Clock9
This is just a couple buildings away from the Auckland Art Gallery which is currently under a multiple year refurbishment – cant wait to see the finished product.
