Tomorrow we head North.
Our first week in Auckland has actually been very stressful, so I've decided not to write about it fully. We have our bank accounts, mobile numbers, a decent van and insurance The details regarding what it took to get all that is something I would sooner forget. It's been a massive pain in the arse, but we're all set now. The adventure can continue.
I'll quickly mention the highlights of Auckland so far. We'll probably be back in a few weeks and hopefully we can enjoy this area a little more the second time around.
The Epic breakfast in the beautiful, relaxed and cosmopolitan area of Ponsonby.
My climb to the top of windy Mount Eden to take some photos of the city at dusk.
Sat underneath the Sky Tower in the Sunshine
Tall cappuccinos in Queen's Wharf
Our morning in the Aquarium with the King penguins....
...and the stunning view of the city on the walk home
Today we got the van. Not a moment to soon. Had we not got one today, we would have had to compete with all the other backpackers at the Auckland car-mart, or cut our losses and catch a bus South to Taupo.
But here he is. Tomorrow, we head north.
The plan doesn't extend much further than that. It's a very appealing notion and one that I'm very excited about.
