Last Night in New Zealand

Well, all things must come to an end, and so it goes for our trip. Tonight is our last night in New Zealand.

We spent the day exploring downtown Auckland today and celebrated our trip by having lunch at the revolving restaurant at the top of Auckland Sky Tower. While we ate our tasty lunch we enjoyed the view of Auckland. So, in and hour or so, we saw all of Auckland. It was great and enjoyed by all.

We only saw a little here in Auckland so I can't really say much about it other then it is a big city. We left the camper van in the camp and bought a family bus pass for a day for $26 and used the busses to got to town and back. I must say that they have a great mobile online page that has a "Journey Planner" that allows you to easily select where you are, where you want to go and it will tell you exactly where to get on and what bus to use to get to your desired destination. It was very easy to use with timetables and everything. When we got back to the camp Jana and I went for a last walk, by the shore, while enjoying a beautiful colorful sunset.

One of you followers asked if we are ready to go home and there are several answers. Phillip said yes, Jana and Michael said no and I am both sad to leave but at the same time looking forward to going home and also looking forward to getting back to work.

Tomorrow we have to pack up, clean the camper, empty everything, fuel up and refill the propane tanks. The place where we will return our camper is close to the airport so it should be easy. Once we will get to our gate at the airport I should have some time to write up some more about our trip and also paste some more pictures here. If not then, I will have a lot of time on the airplane. So this is all for tonight.

Do you know where this picture was taken?

Good night.
