May 3rd, 2005 - Arrived In Auckland, New Zealand

It’s about 3:10 am and we just arrived in New Zealand a little while ago. We have to wait here in the airport until 7:30 am before we can pick up our Motor Home that we are renting. I also have another friend from the US arriving here at 5:00 am named Sal. I am actually pretty tired, but I need to stay awake and watch our stuff. Tony was not feeling well, so he is sleeping as always. So I am just sitting here catching up on emails on my lap top. There are a few strange people walking around in here in the airport. We were so lucky on the flight over here. My friend that works for the Airlines put a call in to a fellow coworker, and so we got bumped up into Business Class which was very nice. We were well taken care of because of my friend. They even gave us some wine to take with us. I am so tired right now that I can’t even see straight... It is raining a little, but the weather is not that cold. Can’t wait to hit the surf later today.
