Auckland in 2 Days

Well, Morgan and I are now in Auckland.  A quarter of the population of New Zealand lives here.  Last night Morgan and I went up to the Sky Tower...the tallest point in the city, complete with glass floors!  It's been fun to walk around the city, which has all the American highlights including Starbucks iced lattes and Wendys chicken nuggets.  (We had both yesterday.) We've spent most of the day today in the Auckland Memorial Museum and strolling through the historic gardens.  It's so hot here!  It doesn't have the constant wind that Wellington does so you definitely feel the humidity here.  Tonight we'll head down to the waterfront and most likely make one last beach trip tomorrow before I begin the trek back to Sacramento.  This has been a phenomenal trip, and I will miss New Zealand dearly. Leaving all that is comfy has forced me to embrace new people, new places, and a new, more exciting version of myself.  Please pray for safe travels.  Enjoy the pics below the map.
