Auckland, New Zealand
We are spending the last week of our overseas adventure in Auckland, the City of Sails. It is the largest city in New Zealand where 30% of the country’s population resides. It has a lot in common with Sydney Australia, beautiful waterfront and surroundings, but cannot touch the charm of its Australian rival. Nevertheless it is a great place to visit. We have rented another small but clean apartment in a great neighborhood and spend the days checking out the city. Today we took the ferry to Rangitoto Island, one of the 48 volcanoes in the Auckland area, and hiked to the summit. Tomorrow I am going to try my hand at America’s Cup racing…crewing on one of the retired America’s Cup vessels along with 20 of my fellow tourists!
