Mangere Bridge is such a lovely little suburb and Ambury park is a great place to go we have been there a few times lamb season is extra cute and often you see Ducks with ducklings waddling behind sadly the numbers can dwindle day to day. In summer families have sports days and its busy with groups. In this park you can actually drive up to almost the edge of the park and look out into the manakau harbour and this is where we like to take our picnics i can not think of many parks that let you do that :)
