We were on a hunt for military haunts today.. we discovered some forts built along the coast, in case of war.
Fort Takapuna was built in 1886 (that's real history here, folks!) It has a well and castellated walls - so it looks the part! It even has guns, taken from a cruiser and installed there.
The beach itself, is as the name suggests - narrow. The tide was in and it seemed that the pohutakawa were only just holding the cliffs up.
Another hot day - but I'm told it's hotter in Australia!
