... we skipped dinner. That night we got ready for our trip up to the Northernland.

After renting the car the next day, we hit the road. We had about a 4 hour drive up to 90 Mile Beach that turned into 7 hours because we stopped along the way. The Moms were so excited about the scenery, Bri and I had to remind ourselves how we felt when we got out of Auckland - in total disbelief. One of our stops was the Bee Shop ...

It's a lovely area and it's also only about 15/20 minutes into town from here so it's perfect. When I first arrived I thought I was only staying while I got settled but I'm now living here full-time and already I feel ...

... 15 hours) we flew United Emirates (great airline!) on the inaugural flight of one of the very new, A380-800 airbuses.  They (generously) seat 10 across, with two aisles, and have two levels.  When they are configured for three classes (first, business and economy -- which was very nice), the plane holds 525 passengers. When configured for economy alone, it holds something like 800 !  It's huge.  They board the plane by zone, not by row.  But, the best part by far, were the ...
