Today we had a drive around Auckland and the North Shore as a last chance to the area. Firstly Liz drove me to Mount Victoria for the view, then Devonport which is across the water from Auckland and is a nice, art deco feel quiet town which is also very seasidey and posh. This seaside element was felt first hand when Liz sat in some seagull poo whilst we were admiring the view on the docks. After a fish pie we finished up in Takapuna and walked the long beach there. The weather has turned and although it is still warm it is very cloudy and overcast. This is allowed as I only have one full day remaining. My tan had better not fade before I get home though or there will be hell to pay.
Tomorrow I am going on a day trip inland (by train again) with Liz to see some caves and possibly a live kiwi!I can't believe I go on Wednesday! It is just as well that is also a recycling day as the bin is overflowing. It is quite an achievement for Gaz, Liz and I to fill it so quickly. I can't think why it is so full of bottles and cans .... gremlins in the night must be filling it :)
