New Zealand-Virtual Day 1 (Sat Feb 22-Mon Feb 24)

Mount Vernon to Auckland

It was 7699 miles, taking 29hrs and 25 minutes counting the airport shuttle ride and a long lay over in Los Angeles.  Also included a lost day because of the international date line.  New Zealand is only 3 hours behind Mount Vernon (and plus a day).  In other words, if it is Monday, 5:00 pm in New Zealand, it is Sunday, 8:00 pm in Mount Vernon.  We left very early Saturday (USA time) and arrived on Monday morning (New Zealand time).  Dinner was that evening.  We had time to see a little of the city, and Vera found a quilt shop where she purchase some unique fabrics.

Middle Earth greetings in Auchland, a common theme throughout New Zealand.

The sound of cicadas greeted us wherever we went in Auchland
