Sunday was a Sea Days with lots of activities on board. This gave us time to start packing.
Monday in Auckland we took a HAL shore excursion as flight were not until 7:00 p.m.
We left our bags outside our door before midnight and did not see them until the airport!
A great tour of Auckland along with a farm visit including "Morning Tea" viewing of Sheep shearing, sheep dog display, deer, gardens and crops it was very enjoyable. I quick stop on the way to the airport for lunch and then we arrive at the airport and our bags are already on carts ready for to check in.
This is a great way to do it!
