Eloise says EMU'S

Greetings from the beautiful and friendly City of Sails. This city is absolutely gorgeous and we made some new friends last night, our very first here in Auckland.

First off was a tasty dinner at CinCin on Quay. If ever you are here head on down for delicious food, great service and a chatty manager, chef and wait staff.

Then it was off to sample some of the nightlife and who did bosom buddy and I meet outside the VERY FIRST VENUE??????????? Eloise Southby Halbish. She is even more beautiful in person and she loves the name EMU'S.

We also met cousins of one of the Samoan team and of the Cook Island teams so we are set and ready to wreak some havoc tonight, the very first night. we discovered that we are staying at the same hotel as the Australian team so be ready for some HOT posts. We are off to the bus now so, keep your eyes on the prize, we surely are.
