A weekend in NZ

Well after an amazing and busy christmas new yeas period it was time to pack my bags and get ready to get back to the USA.
I left on the 15th Of Jan at about 1pm. Feeling a little shady after a great night at True South Brewery in Black Rock, catch up with friends.
Luckily I didnt have to travel too far, only 3 hours to Auckland.
Flew in to Auckland in the late arvo met up with my friend Andrew and drove north to the holiday town of Omaha. About an hour from Auckland, its the Portsea of Melbourne. Really beautiful place had and amazing dinner with Anderw's girlfriend's family, feasting on fresh Snapper.
Up relatively early the next morning, quick coffee, jump in the car and off to the boat ramp for a bit of skirfing. Then back to the house for a big cooked breaky.
Then it was back to Auckland for the afternoon for the final of the Heineken open, which some how we had free tickets to. Second row seats too. Great game, that went to 3 sets finishing in a tie break.
After the tennis it was onto the after party, which involved many drinks and some great music.
One thing lead to another and somehow it turned into a pretty big night...
Sunday the 17th came around before I even knew it. I met up with Nick Hooper and Sam Winstone, and we were off the the airport. Next stop USA.
