View from my school at Pt Chevalier. The Sky Town is the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere. Some days we have a beautiful view, some day, it is shrouded with clouds.

A truly captivating experience awaits visitors to Auckland's Sky Tower. At 328 metres, it is the tallest man-made structure in New Zealand and offers breathtaking views for up to 80 kilometres in every direction.

Travel up in the glass-fronted lifts to one of the three spectacular viewing platforms, or for more thrills and excitement, SkyWalk round the pergola at 192 metres up or SkyJump off the Tower!

Some day we are happy, some day we are not. There are yin and yang.

You just have your day this day.

Happy Sunday.

How tall is that tower?

TALL! These days architects of different countries are competing with each other to build the tallest building. Great shot.

It is beautiful and the views must be so nice. I don't think I would want to Sky Jump though!!!

I'd love to go up that tower. It reminds me of the CN tower in Toronto.

I was okay with participating in everything you said about the tower, until you mentioned sky jumping! You have a nice view from your school.

The Sky Tower reminds «Louis» to invite you to join his Sunday Bridges any Sunday you have a photo of a bridge you would like to share. He wants more participation from the Southern Hemisphere.

It's a beautiful view, even from my computer screen, Ann!

Utterly breathtaking - such an inspiring view to look out to! I do know the story of Little Red Riding Hood - fairytales and woods go perfectly hand-in-hand, although fortunately our woodlands in Ireland have no wolves :)
