Easter Adventures

Hi Lovelies, Happy Good Friday! As you know we are currently in Auckland for a wee holiday with my parents who live here. Yesterday James and I hopped on a ferry and went over to Waiheke Island, about a 35 minute ferry ride away from Auckland. The island is actually quite large. When we got there we walked about 1km to Oneroa township and had a look around, we then caught a bus to Onetangi and visited the Saratoga Winery and Wild on Waiheke where we partook in Archery and Laser Clay bird shooting, along with wine tastings and a yummy lunch! After relaxing in the sun we caught a bus back to the ferry and back home. It was a nice way to spend a day for sure, would love to go back and explore more!

Check out some pictures from yesterdays adventures:

All in all a lovely day. Today is Good Friday here in New Zealand and so far we are just chilling and enjoying the view from Mum and Dads, being a public holiday there isn't much open so its nice to just relax and not do a lot every now and again!
 
Happy Good Friday Lovelies!xxx
