This is a very nice hotel in the centre of the town if a bit pricey, it costs 20NZD to get your car parked and internet is 29NZD. The room we had this time was not as nice as the one we had on our first visit. It had a quirky layout with walls at odd angles. It made a change from boring rectangles that city centre hotels suffer from.

Abschied von Neuseeland

Deshalb fühlen wir uns nicht wirklich schlecht heute, und ausserdem haben wir ja noch ein Ass im Ärmel: eine Woche Dubai. Doch davor haben die Götter noch einen Tag in Auckland und einen sehr …
Kauri-Bäume und (Süß-)Kartoffeln
Pünktlich zu unserer Abreise aus Paihia in die Millionenstadt Auckland hat das Wetter einen kleinen Durchhänger und zeigt sich heute früh bedeckt. Ist aber umso besser fürs Autofahren. Auf der Hinfahrt hat die Strecke Auckland - Paihia uns ca. 3 Stunden gekostet, heute wird es durch ein paar Umwege leider etwas länger und am Schluss sind wir 7 …
