After a couple of weeks with the beautiful people of New Zealand, we said our goodbyes and flew from Tauranga to Auckland, New Zealand and from Auckland to Melbourne.

Our friend and main trip coordinator, Belinda, came with us along with her mom, Jackie.

It was a long travel day. We thanked Bernard and said goodbye and started our trip at about 11 AM. And we finally arrive in Melbourne Australia at about 10PM. We then rented a car and Mark drove us all (using GPS) to Valerie and Peter's home in Labortouche, which is about a 1 hour 30 minute drive from the Melbourne airport.

It was 2 AM when we finally got to bed. We were very tired, but our lovely friends here are taking such good care us, as has everyone wherever we've been blessed to go.
