We've arrived

Flight was loooong but really quite lovely. Once we adjusted to having dinner at 4am GR time, we snuggled into the complimentary pjs for a good rest. Here are our traveling companions Nancy and Tom Huck.


We arrived in Auckland at 10am NZ time (tomorrow). Greeted by this charming fellow.


- Our hotel is right on the harbor and there are lots of cruise ships and yachts Unfortunately it started to pour so our sashay down the quay was traded in for some bridge in the hotel bar overlooking the rain. We found a lovely Japanese place for small plate dinner when the rains cleared.

    Hi K and B,

    We looove having you ahead of us so we can check the weather! We're in Great Barrier Reef territory and having a roller coaster time with tour director...she has exhibited very strange behavior and yesterday suffered a grand mal seizure. We have a doc in the group who reacted beautifully ( a la you, Bill!), and her replacement arrives today. We're quite worried, me in particular, as I have personal knowledge of what this could be indicating via my sister. Yikes. Anyway,brought seas at barrier, and viewing far from perfect with murky water. Due to the huge waves, etc. Uluru was amazing even with flies. We're happy to have done it, and Jim found me a touch of the frog in Alice Springs for the Freys' party...BB
