Nice toes! A yet to be accomplished life goal is to tour your beautiful country.

Cheers, standing the glass is a bit of a weird feeling.

Some great views there thanks for sharing!

I know I couldn't stand on the glass myself - I chickened out at the CN Tower and although the Auckland version is shorter I still couldn't!

Not just no, but HELL NO! There is no way you could get me on that glass floor like that!

Superb pics.
Looks like another nice place to visit some day.
I've stood on the glass floor of the CN Tower, a good recipe for vertigo!

Auckland looks like a really nice city, but I do tend to like to keep my feet a bit closer to the ground.

Great photos and thank you for the plug! Did you do the jump off Sky Tower? Looks a little misty, but I think I could just make out the roof of Auckland Grammar in the last photo.

Thanks, mate!

Great views. Your city is on my list to visit. I was in Sydney a while back on a business trip, but was unable to stretch the time to make a stop in Auckland.

Fascinating photos, BeeDee. I know absolutely nothing about New Zealand, but those who do tell me it is a wonderful Country to visit. I doubt I ever will now, but miracles can happen!

The glass floor atop the tower reminds me also of the CN Tower in Toronto where, in 1996, I had no fear of standing on theirs. The only trouble I had was pushing all the kids off it so that I could 'have a go'!!

Take care,
Ham.
