Day 12 - Tauranga

Clouds! - Woke up this morning to an overcast sky. Turned out to be not a bad day though. Some black clouds around but the sun has managed to break through most of the day.

Phoned around Midder, Feider and Bro's this morning to let them know that we are still alive.

Took Aidan to the Animal Park up past McLaren Falls today. He thoroughly enjoyed himself with all the emus, ostriches, rabbits, deer, pigs, llamas, peacocks, hens and other critters they had in the Park. When we spoke to the woman that works there he asked if he could take the boar home to be his brother! Turns out that she lived in the UK for 9 years working in IT. She packed it in and now works with animals. Says it all really.



























After that we took Aidan to where my duck-friend resides to have a picnic. He had a great time feeding the ducks, hens and Black Swans.















My NZ driving license turned up today! I can get rid of the temporary one I have been using until now and use my NZ one.

On the way home we stopped by the supermarket to stock up the fridge/freezer. Still haven't got used to the lack of black pudding out here. I may have got the purchase of the year though....

....Deep Sea Cod for only 2 cents!!! Looks like they have weighed it wrong. :) (Picture: My 2 cents worth!)
