I heard tell that there's a nice little waterfall right in central Auckland and I've been meaning for ages to go and search it out. So when I was in the city not long ago I made a side-trip and took myself for a walk to find it.
Oakley Creek is a pleasant little brook, babbling in places and placid in others. There's a lovely walking trail through the cool green valley and many wooden bridges on which to pause and reflect.
I passed a sign that described the cultural significance of the location.
And then just around a corner was the waterfall! It isn't the biggest or most impressive I've ever seen, but it was just so friendly I could have sat there all day. What a little gem, and hidden right there by the motorway.
Here, take ten seconds out of your day to relax and enjoy it with me.

The sun burst through the clouds just so I could take this picture.
