Breakers Game

Tonight we attended our first NBL (National Basketball Game) game. We went with our friends Jacqui and Jerry and had two coupons from the Entertainment Book which each entitled us to a buy 1 get 1 free (what a deal). The tickets were $20 each and we had great seats.

This was an important game because the New Zealand Breakers (only New Zealand team in the league) was in 2nd place and if they won tonight would clinch 2nd place for the season going into the playoffs.

The game started out great and the first half was very entertaining. Unfortunately as we got into the 2nd half the play became very sloppy and the Breakers were not played well. The Melbourne Tigers won the game which was a bummer but we had a great time.
We're off for a weekend of fun and hiking with a bunch of friends. Stay tuned for what will hopefully be some good stories and even better pictures come next week. Monday's a holiday for us as it's Auckland Anniversary Day!!
