After the worst turbulence of our lives on our flight from Queenstown to Auckland, New Zealand, we arrived in the country’s big city for a quick evening and overnight before heading to Bali.  Surprisingly, even with only a few hours there, we loved Auckland.  It reminded us of San Francisco a lot and was really a lovely city to wander around.  We dropped our bags off at our hotel and headed out to roam and grab some dinner.  We ended up having Mexican food (so random to see that in New Zealand) and then wandered back to our hotel.  All in all, I’d definitely return to Auckland, it was a wonderful surprise for a city I wasn’t sure at all what it would be like.
