We didn't do much today, apart from going to the post office and on internet to book some things for New Zealand. At 14h we took a taxi to the airport. Our plane was slightly delayed due to a missing passenger, but eventually we left for Auckland. The flight took about 3 hours. The time difference is now even worse. At the airport we had to declare all food and camping gear... our hiking boots had to go through quarantine!! They are really freaked out about getting any undesired dirt onto their island! We wonder whether they will check us again like that when we cross over to the South Island... Anyway, we got to Auckland late at night (22h) and took a shuttle to our hostel, the YHA International. We didn't see much of Auckland, but one thing that surprised us is how steep the roads are! The city streets seem to go up or down vertically!
Weather: sunny in Sydney, cold and dark in Auckland
