Auckland, NZ to Melbourne, AustraliaToday is a travel day. We flew out of Auckland on a 12:45 flight to Melbourne, AU. The flight was 4 hours with a two hour time change so we arrived at 2:45. Originally Cindy's neice, Erika was to pick us up at the airport. Unfortunately, her Uncle passed away on Sunday and the funeral was this afternoon. We took a taxi to Erika's house where she left us a key so we could get settled in. For the next three days we will be staying with Erika, husband Brownie, and their two beautiful children Lachie and Evie Jean. On Saturday we will move in with Cindy's nephew, Damien, wife Mandy and their daughter Georgie. Cindy wants to play with the kids for the next five days so she will have plenty of that with the three kids.
We had nice dinner with Erika, Brownie, Lachie and Evie.
Tomorrow is a holiday, Australia Day, the day for celebrating the landing of Capt Cook in Australia, equivalent to our Columbus Day. So there will be a family BBQ at Erika's so we will have an opportunity to see all the family at the same time.

MelbourneHappy Australia Day!
We had a very nice day, took the kids to Brighton Beach to play in the playgound. A BBQ with all the family in the afternoon was lots of fun. Nice to kick back and relax. We haven't any plans for tomorrow.
