Auckland

We took the train from Wellington to Auckland. All day. Relaxing and fun. Got in so early our friend Bart wasn't there yet to pick us up. 

After he got us we went to his fabulous B&B to pick up Therese and a friend to head out to Kopio's for a fabulous Malasian dinner cooked by their friends. They brought champagne and wine to toast our anniversary and treated us to a real party. Lots of fun. 

The next day we met up with my brother  who happened to be in NZ at the same time. He was with his wife and son's family.  We did the coast to coast trail , meeting them at the domain which was about a kilometer into the 16 km trail. It was a great hike through quite a few lovely parks with their blooming Pahutakawa and Magnolia trees.  Lunch was at a Chinese restaurant where my brother's Chinese daughter-in-law did the ordering. We returned to town by commuter train.
