Monday Feb 23rd Auckland.
We arrived at 8:00 and took a tour including the tower where crazy people Bungee from the top! The tour also included the antarctic penguin and exotic fish display. Auckland is a very pretty clean city. It has population of 1.2 million which is 50% of the total population of New Zealand. The city ids 5th in the world for quality of life. In 2007 it placed 23rd on the list of the world,s richest cities. It is known locally as the city of sails as 20% of the population own boats.
We though we would do well because the exchange rate was 1.85. Not true........the prices were double.
In the evening on the ship we enjoyed a display of Maori dancing, chanting and “Haka” (war dances)
The whole persona of the ship changed today. A new group came on board. It seems to be that they are here to party until they drop? In the theater there were people without jackets! Some had shorts on!
I think the world is coming to an end!
