Last Saturday, we had a chance to get a free boat trip as part of Port of Auckland’s SeePort Week. It was an experience to view the port and its operation. To round off the tour, we were taken to the Harbour Bridge, Westhaven Marina and Viaduct Harbour.
Aside from the great view, the trip also gave us a lots of trivia about Auckland. Gaya nito.
- Ang lahat ng containers na pumapasok sa Auckland (and probably in other parts of NZ) ay dumadaan sa biosecurity check. Kung may insektong nasama sa container, mahuhuli yon. Galing!
- Ito palang Akl CBD ay part ng 390 acres of reclaimed land from the harbour. Asus, 9 months na akong nagtatrabaho sa CBD pero di ko man lang nabalitaan ito.
- Harbour bridge, which was opened in 1959, originally has 4 lanes (2 in each direction). Due to increase in traffic volume, nagdagdag ng another 4 lanes nung 1969.
- Pwede mag-bungee jumping sa ilalim ng Harbour Bridge.... kung matibay ang dibdib mo.
Kahit takot ako sa tubig (dahil di ako marunong lumangoy), nag-enjoy ako sa aming boat ride. Ang mommy ko panay ang pa-picture. Syempre dapat yung may katabi syang porenger. Para daw hindi sabihing nasa Pasig River lang sya at yung Harbour Bridge ay ang Jones Bridge.
