It's about a 10-hour drive from Wellington to Auckland. Oh well, it had to get done.
New Zealand has a population of about 4.4 million, and 1.4 million of them live in Auckland - over 30% of the population. Rugby is their national sport, so it's exciting to be here for the World Cup. We're staying in a really nice area called Remuera, which is about 3 miles south of downtown.
Eden Park is the Mecca of rugby here. We watched France beat England in one quarter-final, and New Zealand beat Argentina in the other.
Pretty decent seats for the NZ - Argentina match. What an experience!
