Hello there folks, how are you going? (As they say in Oz/N.Z)

So we landed in Auckland on Friday evening only to find that the crazy archway in the airport was probably the most exciting thing in Auckland.

I'm afraid there's not alot to say about it here - We've had Nandos and mexican but did have an awesome night at an Irish pub - Father Teds- last night and saw the St Patricks day parade in the afternoon.

Father Ted's had a live Irish band who were awesome and there was a hell of alot of Irish dancing going on!!! Our legs are a little stiff today and we had sore heads this morning aswell...no idea why!!! Haha
We made friends with an Irish couple - Karen and Steve who are planning to live here for a couple of years. Karen had a bit of Irish dancing experience so of course we didn't allow her to sit down all night!!

We also befriended the one and only Bilbow Baggins!!! Haha, Got a few pictures of him to go up soon - he did a mean Irish jig!!!

That's about all there is to say at the moment, just off to get some food and an early night before our 8am pickup.
Next stop...Mercury Bay, we don't have accommodation or anything sorted yet so we're hoping they'll tell us!! Haha Life without a plan eh!

Lots of love
Deb and Lu
