Welcome to Auckland


What a fantastic couple of days we have spent here in Auckland! We arrived safely after a 4 hour flight from Brisbane on Saturday afternoon, welcomed by The Worley family complete with a sign saying 'Meet the Robinsons'!
Was lovely to be reunited after almost 2 years! Sarah is looking very slim after her hard work on the diet and boy!! hasn't Dan grown??? Cameron has too of course, but it's much more noticeable in Dan.
We were transported to our hotel in central Auckland in style in a beautiful white limousine organised by Sarah. Well done mate!!!
After some catching up and a glass of wine or two, we had a good nights sleep and took to the town yesterday morning where we visited Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World and then went for dinner up the Sky Tower! It was awesome. The views were spectacular!! We met up with a family whom we knew in Southampton who migrated to Auckland at the same time as we moved to Brisbane. It was great to catch up. Off to Rotorua this morning.....more soon.

In need of a holiday...

So thought we'd try New Zealand!! Why? you may ask, after all, we've hardly seen anything of Brisbane!!
Some very good friends from Southampton are talking a trip over (yeh, just a trip she says, more like a long long haul!) to see family. We thought we'd gatecrash and tour some of New Zealand whilst we're at it. Thought it might give us something other than house pictures to put on this blog too!
We leave on Saturday......
