arrival in Auckland

Well we are off the ship and have dropped luggage off at the hotel. Now we need to wail for the rooms to be ready and in the mean time explore Auckland. There is a hop on hop off bus for the city. so we can try that.

Took the bus and went to the Vicotria markets and then to the high poin of Auckland.

Visited the MOTAT the museum of transportation and technology.

Take care and have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
