To escape the terrible wind and rain that they had in Rotorua, we headed to Auckland for the weekend, staying on Trinity Wharf in a studio apartment.
Saturday was so warm and sunny as we walked around the waters edge and watched the world go by. John was very excited as we found an Irish pub that sold Boddingtons.
In the evening we went to Wild Fire restaurant, also on the Wharf, where you pay a set price and they just keep bringing food to your table until you've had enough. Loads of side dishes and every different meat you can think off on giant skewers that they slice up for you at the table. Great fun and needless to say both of us were completely stuffed by the end of the evening, luckily not far to walk back to the apartment!
On Sunday, before travelling home we had a couples massage at the East Day Spa in Skycity, which was fabulous, an hour of total pampering in a wonderful setting.
The weekend was a wonderful tonic for us both, just what we needed.

Finished Bathroom
After over a year of our upstairs bathroom being stripped down to it's shell, John has done an amazing job, rebuilding it all and this weekend finished it off.
There have been a lot of long weekends work and no end of problems along the way but last night I had my first bath upstairs and it was bliss.
