Hello Everyone,

Well last night was the Tri-Nations game at Eden Park, and my god, ive never been so wet....it pissed it down right before the game kicked off, we werent undercover and I didnt have my waterproof trousers...result = wet jeans for the whole night, marvellous. However it was worth every soaking minute, the game was fantastic, as was the atmosphere, the Haka...just everything was amazing.

Got quite a few videos of the event, tried to post them on here but they didnt seem to work so I put them on YouTube instead, the links are below for a couple of them that Ive put up already, you should be able to get to the rest of them from these, once ive posted them.

After the game we headed back into town for a couple of celebratory drinks down by the waterfront in Auckland, i must admit the experience was spoiled a little for me by having wet jeans and having to walk quite a distance uphill to some of the bars we went to...Owwww....but hey, it was a great game and a great night.

Today we drove back from Auckland, was about a 6 hour drive, but was very scenic once you get into the countryside.

Thats all from me for the moment, have booked my flight down to Christchurch for next tuesday, so my South Island Adventure begins then!!
