the day started with some skyping then the three of us went to the anglican cathedral for their good friday service

after that we drove over to the domain to go the auckland museum

but got a bit side-tracked as we discovered there was going to be an easter egg drop for kids

a helicopter arrived and dumped loads of easter eggs on a field (already primed with lots of eggs by some helpers) then there was a massive ‘lolly scramble’ as kids threw themselves in to a pile trying to get them

it was as mad as you might expect

then we went in to the museum itself for lunch (you could take your own food, but you won’t enjoy it)

which took us by the gecko tank where one was busy licking up sugar

on the way out we filled in a survey and got some free chocolate (which made up for the fact that kezia hadn’t got any chocolate in the egg drop)
