We moved into the amazing Whaldorf Apartments where we went from having a double bunk bed in our room to having a full on furnished two bedroom apartment including balcony (which if you stood at the right angle you could see the Auckland skyline) On San's birthday we took full advantage of the apartment and slept for the afternoon in peace and quiet, a nice change from the noise of the Jucy Hotel. We got some nice NZ wine and had a few sips on our very cold balcony before going for an Italian restaurant where Jeff had a mashed potato pizza - I know what you're all thinking, yes best moment of the trip so far. Yesterday we went on our dolphin and whale safari around the waters of NZ, we were out on the water for about five and a half hours and after a very quiet start ending up seeing some bottle nose and common dolphins that really enjoyed swimming around the boat and posing for photos and saw a whale (from a distance) he didn't want to play with us. We left the kingdom of peace to move over to our dorm at the YHA - but start the magic bus tomorrow, so have spent most of the day planning and designing (AKA arguing) about what and how to do the trip, but have booked the buses and the accomadtion (and are friends again) so ready to head off to Rotarura bright and early tomorrow morning, just having some mroe fat bird wine and chilling out before we say goodbye to Auckland for a while.
