| 1229344 | 2011-09-07 08:53:00 | Hey Just thought I'd put it out there and ask where people are going to watch the fireworks for the RWC on Friday. I'm not too keen on the Rugby part of it but the fireworks is supposed to be 'the biggest ever to be staged in this country..' I've got a couple of thoughts for where I'll go. 1. Mount Wellington - As its got a good view of the sky tower and harbor bridge. 2. Stanley Point, Devonport - Although I'm sure that's a popular point and it'll be hard to get a park it avoids going into town (I live up north) 3. Local (Whangaparaoa) - Basically if I'm lazy about it, or my telephoto lens can reach far enough (going to be taking photos of it obviously) So yeah can anyone think of a better place or where they're going to view the fireworks? |

| 1229347 | 2011-09-07 09:53:00 | Wow congrats, looks awesome wouldn't mind that myself but I'd rather not be in the crowds so I'm staying away, well that and I want to get some photos of the fireworks so the viaduct wouldn't be the best place. | Civic (15464) | ||
| 1229348 | 2011-09-07 12:45:00 | I'll probably stay in town, at least until the Finn boys have finished their free concert, but under the harbour bridge near the old toll plaza would give a good view, as would the footbridge over the motorway at the bottom of Exmouth Road. Mt Victoria or North Head will be popular spots as will Devonport itself. | johcar (6283) | ||
| 1229349 | 2011-09-07 13:38:00 | For me it will be on TV. At 8.30 in the morning. | wmoore (6009) | ||
| 1229350 | 2011-09-07 13:58:00 | Yeah Devonport is looking like the number one now. Calliope Road and Stanley point Rd being the main ones I'll try to get a park at, otherwise Mt Victoria. Quite looking forward to this, hopefully it lives up to what they're saying about it, I heard they spent a few million on it so it better :) |

| 1229352 | 2011-09-07 21:01:00 | I'm going to watch from Tahunanui beach, might need a telescope but never mind at least I will have tried to watch | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1229353 | 2011-09-07 21:37:00 | I'm heading in the other direction :D (But not far though, only to Drury.) |
