i walked past this boat in the morning, which is a new cruise liner which is based in auckland.  everyone is very excited about that.

and at lunch i had a wander round some of the streets near my office to see where we’d park in the evening.  i found this scrub land which wasn’t where we parked.

meanwhile during the day the girls went to visit some friends with a swimming pool and ants ate this dead dragonfly

then in the evening we went to arena to see the gorillaz who really were excellent.

on the way we popped in to the free party that was going on to celebrate the pacific pearl.  the super mayor of super auckland said hi to jane as we walked past him (having somehow found our way down the VIP exit way!)

we were in the standing part of the arena for the gorillaz gig which was a bit tiring for our old legs

it was still very good, and we didn’t miss too much thanks to the large video screen

and as we walked back to the car we saw some people taking in the last viewage of the pacific pearl
