Today I walked into downtown Auckland (not far a mile or two), bought my train/ferry pass and made my bookings for the next week or so on the train ferry. I leave the day after tomorrow for National Park to hopefully do the Tongariro Crossing. The current weather forecast for there is
Cloudy periods and a few showers. Fresh westerlies.
Freezing level around 3000 metres.
I will decide when I get there if I will do it depending on my asthma and the weather.
Today I also checked out the ferry to Rangitito Island. It is a volcanic island. I plan to head there tomorrow at 9:15am. The weather here today was good. I expect it will be a little hotter on the island as it tends to be warmer there. I plan to walk the summit and coast tracks. There should be a few photo op there.
After gathering all the information, I went to Foodtown and did a bit of shopping. From there I walked back up the hill to the backpackers where I am staying. I was glad to note that although there was some coughing. It was not too bad. I really think I am getting better. Yeah!!!
The rest of the day was spent confirming reservations, doing some hand laundry, visiting a French farmers market (overpriced) and resting.
That is all for now.

Glad you are keeping us posted. How was Rangitito Island? Brody keeps asking when you will be on the computer. I think he misses you (just like the rest of us). Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, we will miss you. :)
