Saturday 5th May Journal entry brought to you by Tami (who is very very VERY tired) Woke up to get the bus this morning at 7 O'Clock, so very tired that I could barely stand up. I was actually exhausted, more so than I have been at any other time in this trip. We were introduced to our driver, Buzz, and then taken to Mount Eden (an inactive volcano overlooking Auckland) so we could say goodbye to the city.
