After another 2 hours of flight by an Air Bus 380 (meal included) we reached Auckland at 3 o’clock P.M. (New Zealand local time).

We had to hurry up because the last plane was 2 hours late. We only had 30 minutes to get to the domestic terminal and to check in at the Air New Zealand counter.

The airplane was really small – especially if you compare it with an Air Bus 380. Our last plane which brought us from Auckland to Wanganui was a Beach 1900D with space for 18 passengers.

At 5 o’clock P.M. local time after approximately 30 hours of travelling we finally reached Wanganui. Vicky Rogers from UCOL was waiting there for us and brought us to Close Quarters – our current accommodation.
