Busy Weekend

Following our yummy Thanksgiving Dinner, we had a busy weekend. We started with a trip to the gym and the Auckland Zoo. We saw a bunch of animals and it was a great time.


Then in the afternoon we watched the Celtics/Lakers game with Jochen at our place. After the game we headed to an Irish bar to grab some dinner and then headed over to a co-workers place for a house warming party.

We woke up early Sunday morning as the Ocean Swim was going on which is a event where 1200 swimmers swam from 1 side of the harbour to the other. It was pretty neat to watch all the swimmers in the space where we always see boats.
We then headed to Long Bay beach and went for a nice walk up and down the beach. When we got back to the city, we watched the Santa Parade which went through the city. It was a very long parade with various bands, floats, and of course Santa at the end.

It's less than 1 month until we head home for what will be a busy holiday week at home!
