Day 82 : New Zealand



Said goodbye to Fiji and took the relatively short hop over the Pacific to Auckland where we picked up the campervan which will be our home for the next 40 days. We headed into Auckland centre (Parnell) and met up with Ed and Rebecca, a couple of friends from Bristol who are working here for 6 months. We’re staying with them the weekend (and taking advantage of their shower / washing facilities!) so will probably look around Auckland tomorrow.

At the start of the day we had absolutely no plan for the next few weeks, but after skimming through a few travel guides at the airport and Ed and Rebecca’s Lonely Planet, we’re starting to form an itinerary. Books are expensive here, so we’re holding out and not buying our own – hopefully we can get by with the free tourist booklets around, and there is a lot of extra info around for the world cup visitors.
