Auckland, New Zealand

LA was pretty awful. We booked an expensive Hospitality Room at the Crown Plaza at LAX, that turned pout to be a very drab, run-down place with no service, no comfort – just a trial to endure for a day really. We then took a shuttle for our Air NZ flight home at 10.15pm. Crossing the dateline we lost our ‘extra’ day and arrived back to a bright, sunny Auckland morning. We landed at 6.45am and got easily through customs etc so were on the road heading home on quiet roads, arriving back for morning teatime. 🙂

It was a great experience, we revelled in all of it. We probably won’t do another one (‘Been there, done that) but will always remember our Voyage on Queen Elizabeth.
