I snapped a couple pictures of the stunningly beautiful sunset while letting the kids play at the playground at Glenview Park.
Fitzroy Park Is nicely nestled within the neighborhood. When you're driving by, it's fairly easy to miss from Waterford Road, but it's worth a stop.
Exploring Shaw's Bird Park for the first time was quite enjoyable. The small stream flowing through various ponds attracted many waterfowl.
Our first exploration of Hamilton Gardens was on a bit of a rainy day. Despite that, many fun and beautiful things to see.
The Lake Domain Playground is an excellent place to let kids run around and have some fun. There's even a toddler specific zone.
Innes Common is a nice place to spend some time down by the lake. There's things to do for all ages, including exercise equipment for adults.
Stopping along Lake Domain Drive provides a nice view across Lake Rotoroa, also known as Lake Hamilton.
First trip to Raglan turned out to be a beautiful evening. We walked along the beach and ate fish and chips next to the river.
We stopped at a really nice overlook driving out to Raglan. Looking toward Raglan, provides a lovely view of the mountains and valley.
Swarbrick Park is a nice little place to relax. There was a play structure for kids and some nice open fields for sports and other activities.
