Friday 20th November ; Fly out to Auckland, New Zealand
Sean collected us later than planned as there was an electricity black out where he lived due to the heavy rain, which continued to this morning - apparently both quite a rare phenomena - but we still made it to the airport in good time with no hitches. Our flight today consists of hopping between islands before finally making the last leg from Honolulu to Auckland, that way the fares were half price and we get to see the islands from the air.
The first leg had a very tight 30 mins turnaround but we discovered we were flying out on the same plane so just sat there not even needing to get off. No pressure after all. On the first flight we got talking to a lovely, local lady about our travel plans and she randomly said could she follow our blog, So Donna we hope you enjoy reading it. Any time you are in England let us know.
Arrived safely in Auckland 10.30pm Saturday night and collected by James, an old work colleague of Glenn's. He dropped us off at the Airbnb home of Lovane and Jade in Ponsonby with their lovely welcome even though it was gone midnight when we arrived. Great night sleep even with the storm, thunder and lighting raging through the night.
