Auckland O Auckland

Back up the East coast of South Island, through Geraldine stopping for a Moor's Head and a cup of hot choccie, and up through the long outskirts of Christchurch we went. 3 hours at the airport where we had fun making inane stickers on an even inaner Japenese photo booth before boarding a flight for Auckland, a seriously big city. We arrived late in the evening and immediately got stuck in a large traffic jam, the result of a cricket match between Australia and New Zealand.

The next two days we had for visiting friends seeing Morgan's childhood neighbourhood and spotting the local advertising announcements, a good way to judge a culture; if that be then what does 'Honk if you think I'm a Hornbag mean'?

Now it's tine to leave the Antipodies after over two months and hit the South Pacific Ocean. Blue skies, sandy beaches, grass skirts and lawnmowers? Hang in dear reader.
