We landed in Auckland from Fiji wearing shorts, t-shirts and sandals - bad idea! It was raining when we arrived, just like home. We got straight to our hostel and found our beds in the 8 bed dorm. We met two Canadian girls and an american guy. We only had one full day in Auckland and so had to make the most of it. We went to the Skytower but because the weather was so bad we couldnt see much. We then went on the bus tour of Auckland which was hop on hop off. We got off at the market and brought a few gifts for Christmas. We stopped off at the harbours edge and took a boat trip tour. This was good but choppy at times and we went under the Auckland Bridge. We finished the day by going to Father Teds pub - a great Irish pub which sells great cheap food, $6 for a full sunday roast (2 pounds). We also watched the Premisership football higlights there. We then ended up in the Auckland casino, a bit of a come down from the Las Vegas casinos but fun all the same. The next day we hired a car, a lovely brand new never driven before Mazda M3 to continue our journey around New Zealand.
