Day one

We Made it!


The gannet colony


Our host Lisa








Lisa was waiting at the airport when we arrived. So good to see her! We came back to their place and had some breakfast. We headed to Mt Eden where we could see both coasts of the north island and the city of Auckland. Then we headed to the coast where we got to see black sand beaches, a playground (Lil found her swings), surfers, a gannet colony of birds, and incredible scenery. It was totally stunning and even with just a few minutes of sleep in several days of travel we were all able to enjoy it. Then it was back to Lisa and Ian's for lunch and naps. I had to wake Mike and Lil from their naps so they would still sleep at night. We had a relaxing evening in and were all in bed by just after 9.
