Achilles Point

Went for a little trip to the seaside this morning. After a stop for coffee we went up the hill to see the view of Rangitoto from the viewing area at Achilles Point. This is a headland above St Heliers bay which "commemorates the 1939 battle of the River Plate where the New Zealand crewed HMS Achilles engaged with other allied vessels to defeat legendary German cruiser Graf Spee". Looking fine for Christmas.
