tana. We are all sad t
o leave Ahipara. But we decided to get closer to Auckland today to save some time and stress getting to the airport tomorrow. On our way South we stopped in Kawakawa which looks like just another small, ordinary Kiwi town. However, the local loos are not ordinary. Apparently they were designed by some Austrian artist and they are the most photographed toilets in all of NZ. That afternoon we stopped at an Auckland mall to find some sunglasses. I was so excited to actually be stepping into a proper shopping area! As much as I love Hawke's Bay, the shopping leaves much to be desired. I found that I didn't like the large crowds of people or the high prices. I think the Orange County life is starting to fade away!
Devonport is where we stationed ourselves for the night. We had some difficulty finding a place due to the school holidays. I got tired of getting in and out of the car and checking out each hotel, so I stayed in the car and played Mom's "intendo" (Nintendo.) But Uncle Jay's persistence soon paid off and we found a place to spend the night.
