We left Whitianga on the Wednesday for drive back to Auckland, stopping for lunch at a delightful town the name of which escapes me just now. Dinner that night was excellent in a Japanese restaurant across the road from our hotel. Afterwards we went to a live comedy show two doors up from the restaurant where 10 comedians performed one after the other. It was terrible with foul language and crude jokes about the worst things you could imagine.
Next morning before driving out to the airport we went up the sky tower, supposedly the tallest free standing structure in the southern hemisphere. We watched a few brave souls do a sky dive down on a controlled speed descent on a couple wires. Not for me.

Rob and Gord picked us up at Tullamarine about 6.30pm. Almost on cue there had been 60ml of rain in the previous couple of days, the first for many weeks and the hot weather had abated for a while.
