I'm blamimg my coworkers for the horrible start to our vacation. They kept telling me it was going to storm the day we leave and we'd end up snowed in. It did start snowing before we left and it delayed us leaving Garden City by an hour. That shortened our hour and a half layover in Dallas by an hour. We almost had our tickets sold to standby passengers while we were trying to get to the right concourse!!!
We did finally make it, but it was close.
The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful. We arrived in Auckland and took the bus down to the wharf so we could take the ferry to Waiheke island.
This is the ferry that took us over. Not the big cruise ship looking thing, the one I took the picture from.
Waiheke is a lot like the rest of New Zealand. Desolate and extremely un-scenic. For example, take a look at this hideous view Lee and Ian have to look at EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!
Can you believe that? You can't even see a SINGLE tumbleweed in that view!!! How boring is that?
This was taken halfway down to the beach. Notice the Crawford Cove sign in the background? Pretty cool, huh?
