A wet drive to Auckland

After a very wet night we had more rain today - all day. Too wet to take Totty out.

Went to Red Cross this morning and it was very busy. Met my new boss who takes over when Bianca goes on maternity leave next week. She seems OK.

Got home and made lunch and then packed the cases ready to leave as soon as Jon and Heather get home. Heather has now changed her mind and is not going to play netball so we can leave a bit earlier.

I just have to take Tot up to kennels at 4.00, poor Tot!! She didn't like to leave me and had to be carried again.

Jon and Heather got home and we sorted ourselves out and then set off. Although it was raining and not a nice night the drive was pretty good and we arrived at the hotel by 8.30.

After checking in and looking at our rooms which although recently renovated they were not very nice, just had a dirty feeling about them yet they looked clean. Dinner was basic to say the least and it all had a nasty feeling about it.

We won't be staying in this hotel again. We stayed there to check it out as Heather was planning on staying there when she flies up to meet her friend at the end of June but we really wouldn't want her staying in a place like that on her own. You get what you pay for and this was cheap.

Went to bed early as we need to be up at 4.30 to get to the airport.

Rain, rain and more rain and wind 17 degrees
