Beautiful lookout view of downtown Auckland . Despite the signs to stay on the trails, people feel a need to walk through the grass and down or up the hill.

Beautiful artistic totem pole set in trees. Unfortunately, there is some vandalism around the base. Free and in Seattle center, among several modern sculptures.

One of the best experiences I had on my trip to Baltimore. I would say if you are a Type A person looking for things to be running like a New York subway schedule, I'd arrive after 1pm... and relax a bit. This all volunteer crew opens on Saturday and Sunday in the summer. At noon, they are still pulling the Trolleys out of the barn... the people are extremely knowledgeable and focused on sharing their passion for the historic Baltimore Trolleys with the guests and making it an experience you won't soon forget. If you have an extra hour, ask for a tour of the trolley barn to see all of the historic Trolleys and the restoration process in action. Your admission gets you unlimited rides for the day and they usually have 2-3 Trolleys going. They had 3 out and 2 offering rides while I was there. Unique in that almost all of their Trolleys actually used to service Baltimore streets.

The Walter Chrysler Mausoleum in Sleepy hollow Cemetery. Founder and namesake of American Chrysler Corporation.

This Buddhist stupa was off the road to the Shiva temple. It is fairly small but has some good statuary around it. It is also well mowed and maybe a 15-20 minute stop. I spent a little while longer as I happened upon a big green snake in the grass. I kept a good distance but was surprised to see this 4-5 foot snake.
