We would highly advise taking public transport to the festival - bus stops and Grafton & Newmarket train stations are just a short walk away. If you must drive, then park further away (such as the Victoria St or Civic car parks in the CBD) & walk to the domain from there.

I hope you all had a fantastic long weekend. The sun was shining brightly and Aucklanders were out in force, which was great to see.
I saw some big crowds at Hayman Park, Manukau and Parrs Park in Henderson yesterday for the Waitangi celebrations. Impressive challenge and welcome for the PM at Hoani Waititi Marae. People enjoying sunny weather, the festivities and food stalls.
I capped off Waitangi day by getting some exercise on the farm, loading up hay bales. Hot work, but a cold beer afterwards helped with the recovery.
Have a great week, Auckland!

That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.
HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv

I'm signing up for the Aotearoa Bike Challenge.
It's a bit hard to ride my bike to and from work because I live out in Clevedon, but I will try and get around on my bike when I'm in the city.
Are you keen to join in?
