We arrived into AKL around 5:00am this morning. The flight was a piece of cake (only 12 from LAX), and customs were a breeze. We were out of the airport in no time. However, this did pose the problem (which we were well aware of), it was way too early to check into the hotel. But, we figured it couldn’t hurt to stop by - best case senecio, they’d be willing to hold our bags for us until the room was ready.
Good news! The Holiday Inn we stayed at was very willing to hang onto our bags for a few hours. Perfect- after 24 hours lugging them around, we were thrilled to store them safely as we explored the area.
Now, by this time, it was hardly 7:00am. So, we went to a cafe down the street to grab some drinks (smoothie/coffee). We’re back to Flat White territory. Ryan’s thrilled! And, then we headed out to explore the area. Despite the drizzle, the landscape and nature is beautiful!
We were able to get into the room earlier than expected, which was great news. We were both eager to shower after all the traveling. We relaxed for a bit before heading out to the Post Office for some food. Quality spot- both food and cider were delicious. The beer selection was decent, too.
