trip to Bali and new zeeland (more)

Hello again,
After visiting Bali, where we had a wonderful time and very warm, we are now in new zeeland to visit our daughter, who lives in auckland.After some problems with luggage, we are oly allowed to have 15 pp and we were going to colder new zeeland.So had to pay anyway for the extra kilo's.Again air asia was very strange for us: there were seats you can use overall. the seats are not numbered so it was a run to the airplane.very strange.Then we landed on Kuala Lumpur and we had to change airports. Air asia landed on a different spot.Now the transfer was in daytime, so all went thistime smoothly.After several hours of waiting we started to go of to new zeeland. The welcome of our daughter was very nice andwe had many talks because we had not seen eachother in a long time.We have visited an island, WAIHEKE, that is an wonderfull island close to auckland (45 minutes by ferrie).It is an island where 'flower power' people went in the years 70's. Some of them are stayed there and still wearing long hair and flower power clothes.funny to those people. There was market on the island and we met a polisch woman, who married with a dutch guy and was visitingnew zeeland on her one. She invited us to have a drink a glass of wine. That was very nice of her.We are not so used to the cold weather here, because we came from Bali and there the temperatuur was 30 degrees and here15 degrees in daytime.Very funny though, we see here in new zeeland people in the 40 ties walking in t-shirt and short pants, while the temp is only 15-18 degrees.Because of the summer may be, but now it is springtime and the temp is very low.It is a beautifull country here and the people are very nice. They are not so in a hurry as in holland, or western europe.and if you see the houses, all are places on a big piece of ground. only 1 level and you think that the house are big, but when you go insidethey are not as big as you think. The surrounding of the houses are big. many grass around the houses, many space in front and behind.Well, for now this memo, next week more. I will try to put photo's on this site as well.You can also see photo;s on the dutch site (similair, but in dutch language).
see therefore:
