Auckland

Goodbye Australia, Hello New Zealand!

Today is our last day in AUS and our first day in NZ. We took a morning flight that served a proper lunch, I don’t think the US airlines ever fed us this much. Qantas is great – they always serve food, always have in-flight entertainment (even if it’s just 30 minutes of news or sports highlights), and they have double the amount of flight attendants most US flights have. Plus the headsets are free, not a stupid 2$. To top it off, their logo is a hopping kangaroo; it doesn’t get much better.

So I started doing drawings for the Flash animation of a hook turn in Illustrator (those of you actually following this blog know what I’m talking about), and about 3 hours in the application quit. Needless to say, it may be a while before I get up the motivation to start over.

Auckland is a lovely city. Our hotel is at the top of a hill downtown. To get to the main downtown area we had to walk down a very steep hill and then down another hill littered with Asian food establishments and Internet/Gaming cafes. Once downtown, we walked around a bit and crossed the street diagonal-ways a couple of times. I like New Zealand.
