	I definitely need to get a more comprehensive book of NZ place names. The AA mag came today with a flyer advertising their book of road maps, maybe it was trying to tell me something.

	There are plenty of places beginning with W. Who can give the Maori name of the Auckland Harbour? It means sparkling water.

Member Since: June 2004 Posts: 312 Send Message	Maori name re Auckland Harbour... Tamaki-Makau-Rau ??
Member Since: October 2003 Posts: 6,033 Send Message	Huia	Report	27 May 2006 01:07
	Linen Lady got it, Waitemata. Tamaki-Makau-Rau (which I think is an abbreviation of the real name) is the name for the isthmus, think it means Tamaki of the thousand lovers or some such. Doesnt it Vivienne?
