On the Road again ~~ Auckland to Tauranga

Ok so here we are in Auckland and the All Blacks won, which in this country is a huge deal they havent won since 1984 and back then it was also against the French. So they are having a huge parade down queens st downtown today and the team is going to be traveling to each major city to do a parade for celebration. Awesome!! The kiwi picnic was out of control they had thousands of people there and satellite stations all over New Zealand where each city was having a picnic, so that was interesting to see each city celebrating. We did find transportation but the pictures and what it is will be revealed soon. We have to do some maintenance work to it before posting so just be on your toes...If you know what it is don't spoil it!!!! So we left Auckland and are headed to Napier but on the way stopped in Tauranga which is where the huge oil spill is going on right now, but it is still a beautiful little city. So hope you enjoy the pictures... Tomorrow is Tauranga to Gisborne
