Derelict Sunday...

We had planned to go away fora the weekend in the caravan but then the weather turned real nasty...lots of rain and wind and we stayed home.  On Sunday we took Paddy for a walk around the Victory Battery at Waikino about 40 minute drive from home.  This was a gold mining area and is now a tourist attraction as it is alongside the Hauraki Rail Trail.    I had packed my lens ball in and had fun playing with it.  In the lens ball is the main part of the battery.  

Here is a link to more information.
