from waiwera

hey all! i've only got a minute or two, but just wanted to let you know that we're getting close to auckland and should arrive either tomorrow night or the night after. it's rained all but one day (bryan's bday, on which the weather hurled itself at us in the form of strong wind) since we left whangarei, so we're hoping for the weather to clear up again and let us dry off.

spent last night at a campground in waiwera, which is famous for its hot pools resort. our campground gave us a great discount, so we spent yesterday evening soaking in the movie pool, which was 100 degrees and showed music videos. hope to update by monday or tuesday!

  1. R&B,
    It's good to hear from you. Wow, you are, what, over 500km now? I hope the rain lets up. I bought my sleeping bag and liner this week at REI (thanks again for the gift card); looking forward to trying it out somewhere on the AT this fall.
