Napier

Sunday 6 February 2011



























Warm sunny day. We got a shuttle bus to downtown Napier. We walked around the town, stopped in a beautiful park. We visited the Art Deco shop but they didn't have any of the Art Deco T-shirts that we saw last time. We bought a couple of T-shirts at a NZ souvenir shop. We stopped for a cold drink at a cafe. Tried to use Wifi but gave up. Walked along foreshore which was built on the debris of the 1931 earthquake. Got shuttle bus back to ship. Had a long nap, Terry went to the gym. Had dinner with Margaret and Deidre who have been friends since high school, interesting conversation. After dinner we went up on deck 14 to watch the sun set.

tapingsaGood to read your take on the OHAA conference in Melbourne! I really enjoyed it and visiting the King Tut exhibition on Sunday morning. I skipped am tea, one session and lunch in order to get there!
Back in Tasmania now having despatched the minutes of the National comittee meeting on 6th and the AGM on 9th. Glad to have handed over to someone else and ditch the responsibility. Glad to have met you. Margaret Eldridge
