We are in Auckland


Friday 17th January

What a great place Auckland is!. We walked down to the harbour this morning, all around the new quays and wharves looking at all the big shiny boats. They had some of The Americas Cup racing boats moored, amazing things. The morning was spent sorting out stuff, going to the tourist office, buying a sim card and dongle for the pc, going to the supermarket, and buying me a new pair of sandles, as I stupidly left mine in Canberra.....derr. We had coffee and chilled out.... it's such hard work!



After Oz last week, the weather is perfect., about 25 degrees, blue skies, warm and sunny. The city is windy, so there is always a breeze running through... I think I might have caught the sun as I didn't feel the need to cover myself up from head to foot.

In the evening we tried a terrace wine bar just down the road, and came back and cooked pasta for dinner, pefect. We are trying not too eat out too office as the waistline may suffer even more.

A good day had by all.
