A few pictures from Christmas day
Spent the morning strolling along Tamaki Drive in Auckland and the afternoon sailing one of 2000s Americas Cup boats (Nz40) in the Auckland Harbor. Great fun!
Tomorrow morning we'll get on a bus for a place called Tongariro, which played the part of Mordor in the LoTR - movies, for an 8 - 11 hour hike the following day. The length of the hike depends on if we decide to hike to the top of one of the mountains there or not. 11 hours does seem a bit long to be out hiking, so we'll probably settle for the "shorter" hike.
Hope Santa was nice to you all... we didn't get any presents this year, so apparently we've been bad... boo-fucking-hoo :(
Maori pin-up?

Sailing back to Auckland harbour
Not much else to report. The whole city is pretty much closed down for Christmas Day. Only a few souvenir shops are open. The streets are not exactly filled with people, but those few who were on the streets at least seemed to enjoy us wearing our "santa hats" (or whatever you call them) :)
