Back Home

Image
 The last few days has been a bit hectic, but here we are back in Havelock North and back to my usual exercise regime of cycle 3.4 kilometres from home to the car park, then walk various trails. here looking out towards Mount Erin with Mount Kahuranaki just visible over the ridge to the left.

Final Meal

Image
 Last take-away meal in the hotel, or the remains thereof.

Final Day

Image
 I've had my negative test result and my time is up at 9.45 tonight. Unfortunately there's no way out of Auckland tonight so I have to wait until tomorrow morning. Time for one last supervised walk down at the wharf on a decidedly wet Auckland morning.

Day 13

Image
 One more day of this view - hopefully. Still waiting for a negative test result. I'm sure this building was only about two stories high when I arrived....

Auckland Port

Image
 Slightly different view of the city today with the skyline slightly obscured by this Ro-Ro, one of two identical ships in today disgorging second-hand Japanese cars for us poor Kiwis.

Managed Isolation Hotel

Image
 The Four Points Hotel from the exercise yard. I think my cell is in the gap where the shadow dips between two peaks. Either there or the next floor up. Bit hard to tell when the foyer is on level 4.

Happy Hour

Image
Happy hour, managed isolation style. Beer in plastic 'glass' delivered to your room with a note saying 'Happy Friday. Enjoy Your Drink.' Complementary Friday Hotel shout gets the thumbs up though. Yes this was from yesterday.
