Writing this from LAX, we’ve now had our final day in Auckland. As the flight was quite late we decided to make the most of the day and we’ve already seen the sky tower that we wanted to, so we headed out of the city to the Aquarium.

The aquarium itself is quite big, with the key elements being a penguin exhibit and a big shark tank. Whilst not quite the experience of Ocean Park, the penguins were very good and you can see them underwater as well. The shark tank had a moving travelator to go through it; which Rebecca wanted to stay on all day. Three loops round was enough for us and I hopefully got some good photographs. After a few hours we headed out of town towards the airport and relaxed for a couple of hours in a town called Davenport. All good and got some nice shots back at the harbour. Leaving I noticed that we were near an airport, trouble is the wrong one! Thankfully loads of time so arrived with time to spare, packed, emptied our faithful campervan back (got a refund on the heater we purchased) and straight onto the plane.

Half way home now, waiting in LAX. Rebecca has been a star so far and the seats we have are very fancy business class looking. 12 hours more flight and London will welcomed
