Was supposed to be a sleep in but some dont know how to do that. We spent a couple of hours getting local money supplies and then a short trip to the peoples store. An hour of that was enough, a short walk and market heaven. All the usual consumer products at super prices. Best buy two pairs of prescription glasses with titanium frames and progressive lenses for just over $200 NZ total.
Our adventure today was a police car nearly skittling Martin during a car chase in which we witnessed a escaping vehicle reversing very fast the wrong way up a one way street. As I write this there has been a crash on the intersection outside our window. Back to the hotel for a beer and some laughs then a meal at a local restaurant complete with peking duck. Martin in the news again for being the inaugural recipient of the dead possum award for leaving his 2 bottles of gin in the taxi when he arrived here from the airport.
