Last trip days

We spent the 3rd day hiking around. The boys did more hiking than Brook and I. We did a little hiking and went to some pottery places and a cafe. The 4th day was spent driving home. We stopped at the once best fish and chips on our way home. We decided the best is still down the street from us. :-) We stayed at the greatest backpackers place. It was nicer than some hotels we've been in. We managed a room with it's own kitchen and bath. It was great! And on the beach! That night we went to a local brewery/restaurant in Auckland. Today we went to Rangitoto Island. It's the youngest volcano in New Zealand. It's only roughly 600 years old. It is currently considered "dead". This is a picture of us on the island looking over the city. Tomorrow night, the Abrams leave us. We are spending tonight and tomorrow relaxing watching Lord of the Rings extended edition. It is in honor of the south island that we were not able to visit. :-)
