The Waikato river is the longest river in New Zealand and a very beautiful one, but very dangerous. It is safe if you swim with someone else and in a popular site but wouldn’t go there lightly.
This river runs very deep and very fast.
This type of bridge is quite common in the Waikato river and not sure when it was built but before the 1950s.
Rain is on the forecast today, and much of it which we badly need in Auckland.

that is a great reflection you’ve captured! i love the bridge. that style is one that was big in the southern us circa 1950 as well
That is a perfect shot. I have yet to try taking reflection photos.
Such a stunning capture!
Thanks Ellie, it is always wonderful to see some of the Waikato bridges..there is a style to it that I like very much.
Beautiful view of the bridge. This must be a wonderful place.
It is a wonderful place to visit but I would not want to live in Huntly, it is a rough place to live. Always great to visit. Thanks Vidocka.
Nothing yet, a few clouds are rolling in. Love this bridge.
Thanks so much Carol, glad you like it, I have already walked across to Highland Park in the drizzling rain to buy a few essentials for my morning walk. We will get some rain, hoping that the good Lord above lassos those clouds and tell them to drop their rain over Hunua and Waikato Dams that supply Auckland.
Our dams are 40% capacity in the winter.
