First day in New Zealand

After getting into Gertrude’s room at the hotel (ours wasn’t ready yet) Bill and I both took hot showers and changed out of our travel clothes. Why does it feel like you are so dirty when all you do is sit in a plane? We met Gertrude downstairs for lunch figuring it would be good to get on the New Zealand schedule. Our room was ready so we headed up and took a nice long nap. We watched a cricket match on tv and before we knew it was 6:30 and time to Uber to a delicious dinner at Manaus Seafood Boil. We came back and got some NZ money from the ATM for our adventure for the next couple days.
