After 24 hours of flights, we are finally in New Zealand! We flew into Auckland, just missing a very sudden and unusual hail storm. It is beautiful here. We spent our first day touring the city a little. We visited the Maritime Museum, where we saw everything from Maori war canoes to parts of the Endeavour, Capt. Cook's ship. After that we took a trip to the Antarctic and underwater adventure museum. We saw shark, giant sting rays, and real live penguins! (They call the king penguin Fatty!) At the end of the day we had a wonderful dinner of New Zealand beer and green lipped mussels while we sat overlooking the water. Today we pick up the campervan and set off to see the north island! More later!
P.S. Today is Fri. Oct 5th here!
