Well yesterday we took a 7 hour coach ride from Auckland to Napier on the Pacific coast. I spent the whole journey reading the rest of my Fry Chronicles book and Faye slept through a lot of it, but we did see some scenery and massive mountains and lots of hills that Faye and Nik now call Telly Tubby hills. We got into Napier at about 8pm, got our stuff into our room and then wandered two doors down to a steak house. We had something called a half rump steak which I swear was over 16 ounces. They were freeking lovely!
Today we decided to walk around Napier. Napier so far is my favourite place to walk around. Its mainly flat except for the Bluff, a massive hill that Faye made me climb. Its also the Art Deco capital of New Zealand. I LOVE Art Deco (ref love of Poirot) and theres now lots of photos of 1930s buildings and I bought stuff from the art deco store. We've spent the whole day wandering around and shopping, now my feet are sore.
Tomorrow we are going to play mini golf on the sea front before going for a wine tour to 5 different wineries. There may also be a cheese board in attendance. This place is wonderfully relaxed and I might even attempt a run tomorrow before golf.
Faye is slightly less sun burned now but her leg still feels like its falling off. And she ripped off her thumb nail this morning. I swear I am going to wrap her in bubble wrap for her own safety.
Love you all.. its about 25 Deg C here at the moment. Beautiful blue sky and I've been in shorts the whole holiday so far.
All is awesome
Love Tui and Kiwi xxxx
