Now this was a good start to the trip – flew into Auckland, jumped into a cab and headed to the Copthorne Hotel.
A quick check in and down into the Reception area. From there one of the staff directed us over to the Provedore pub – a great little pub over on the wharf.
As luck would have it, we wandered in at about 5 pm just when they we’re starting Happy Hour! Wooooohoooooo!
$2 Beers – A Nice Start!
Heinekens were $2 each and the lads tucked in.
They also provide free sandwiches and a BBQ for free during this time.
Life can be very, very good sometimes.
From drinks we wandered over to the Kermadec Restaurant, across the road.
After a wonderful 4 course meal, a few wines and beers, we got tucked into bed for a nice eraly start the next day to ride the roads of the North island of New Zealand.
Cheers
Brendon
