May 30, 2008 - Takapuna Beach

Today we left the Manukau campground and moved up to Takapuna Beach on the northside of Auckland to be closer to the Kea terminal.  The campground is right on the beach with views of the shipping and boating inlet.  Then we had to try and pack all of our belongings plus the things that we bought along the way, clean out the refrigerator (normal proceedure is to leave housekeeping items and food in the campground kitchen for others use) and in general get the motor homes ready to turn in to Kea.

Guardian in the campground.

Dog parking stations at the restaurant at entrance to campground.

Our team including Tish and her mother, Mike and his wife, and the rest of us at the GPK Restaurant for a last gathering and meal together.  This was a time of recollection and saying goodbyes.  What great friends we have become.  Joan and I had worked with Tish and Mike before and they are great both as friends and to work with.

Probably the last lamb dinner for a while.
