Day 128 Auckland, New Zealand

Friday 14th October 2005

sunny 20 °C

I wasn’t to sure what to do today when I woke up. If I had the hiking trousers I was hoping to buy the previous day I was contemplating walking to Mt Eden and One Tree Hill so I could get a better view from them during the day. Instead as Fiona had mentioned that Newmarket was a nice place to visit for shopping I spent most of the day here and in the end bought some trousers and tried not to worry too much about the price.
Tonight was my last in Auckland and I have to say it was the most enjoyable. Luckily Fiona wasn’t to bored of my company just yet and we headed to a bar in Newmarket for a beer while watching the rugby which even though I haven’t a clue of the rules looked like a fantastic game (even though I have to say a certain someone predicted the wrong team to win hahaha!!!!!) Then I enjoyed one of the best steaks ive ever had in a restaurant just around the corner washed down with another couple of beers. All in all it was a lovely night and enjoyed with the company of a gorgeous albeit slightly crazy kiwi woman (good job im at least a 3 hour drive from her now or I would of probably felt a swift slap to the back of the head by now).
Anyway thanks again Fi for showing me around and it was a pleasure to meet you and hopefully I will see you soon
