Arrival in New Zealand

Due to the smaller steps we took on our travels through USA, we were only 4 hours of time difference between LA and Auckland and therefore not much jet-lagged. Flight arrived on time and we were met in the arrivals lounge by M&A and J&J - a GREAT New Zealand welcome!

It was a sunny spring day as we travelled south to Cambridge, stopping at .... for a mid morning coffee.

BACK in NORTHERN IRELAND... this was the day the politicians were to finally sort out their issues... but NI made the world headlines when a terrorist tried to blow up Parliament Buildings at Stormont... I expect this will be new Guy Fawkes Day for Northern Irelanders... and fireworks will be let off until 25th November every year... sensation was shortlived in NZ as New Zealanders more interested in where the Rugby World Cup final wll be played in 2011.... a new stadium or an updated stadium.
