Leaving on a Jet PLane
December 19th, 2006 at 2:07 pm by mikeTonight. We leave Auckland at 7:30 pm, and get in this morning at 10 am. Still wrapping my brain around the idea that we travel back in time.
So it is a bittersweet parting from NZ. We are going to miss this place very much. We have had some great experiences and met some wonderful people. I guess we’ll just have to come back. At the same time, it will be good to get home and see everyone. Also, it will be really nice to stop moving all the time and living out of our bags. And although we understand we are coming home for Christmas, it is still a sort of abstract thought. It seems something far away, because we’ve been in summertime for the last couple of months. And it’s been very weird to hear and see Christmas ads here. They mostly include something about “Summer is coming, and you know what that means – Christmas!” Huh?
Anyway, the last few days were really good. We drove up to a town called Russell, on the Bay of Islands. The hostel we stayed at was just a house with a guest cottage beside it. Very small and cozy and welcoming. The owners were very friendly and gracious, and made us really feel like guests. We did a sailboat cruise of the bay two days ago, and although it was a little too cool and cloudy to swim or snorkel, we still had a fun time. It was an excellent way to wrap up our time here. Today we drove back down to Auckland, and soon we’ll be dropping off our car and heading to the airport. So this is the last post from NZ. We should have some wireless when we get to LA, so lots more pictures (and posts) to follow.

I played this sound file of the kookuburra for sam – it really does sound like a monkey fight. http://www.honoluluzoo.org/kookaburra.htm
