Melbourne, Auckland

The direct flight to Melbourne was a lot more pleasant than I expected it to be. It is mostly full of Australians who are returning home after a holiday in Europe. First stop was a few hours in bed after the 14 hour flight. I then met my Uncle and he took me down to Geelong where my Auntie lives to have dinner. We had a really good night and I'm glad I got to see them both again. The next day we did a quick 2 hour hop over the Tasman Sea to New Zealand. I was really surprised by how many Koreans lived there. I went for a walk around the main shopping area in Auckland before catching a ferry over the harbour to a suburb that faces the city. The view is really nice at night when all the buildings are lit up. We had dinner in a small cafe and then went back to the hotel to sleep. Back in Melbourne the next day I went to the restaurant my Uncle works at and had lunch before flying back to Dubai that night.

Justine was doing the same trip as me but a day earlier. I managed to catch up with her for an hour after arriving in Auckland before she had to leave to go back to Melbourne.

In the cafe I had lamb soup for dinner. It was great!
