At the speed of light or day

So here we are, New Zealand. The End. Well we will be heading to Auckland this weekend with a stop near Whangarei. We are in Opua and have been here for about a week at this point. The last passage was cold and very slow. It gave us some of our slowest days, about 38 nautical miles I think. Lisa and Leslie will drive down to Auckland while Andy and I take Aldebaran down the coast to her new slip in Auckland. Carl will be hitching a ride down with a friend on Monday. Between now and Christmas we will be posting everything that has been left out, including a couple hundred photos from Suwarrow, Niue, Tonga, and New Zealand. As well as some posts that were written along the way that never quite made it online and some photos from the early days of working on the boat.

So there you have it. We sailed to New Zealand.

Thanks to Graham and Annette for providing us with
the means to gorge ourselves on hot water  and snacks.
And for snapping this pick on our arrival
