Day 1: Auckland: mt eden

I arrived in auckland airport at 5 am. Walked out and realized wtf am i gonna do for half a day before getting to the hostel? I wandered the airport,read a bunch of brochures and bought a sim card.

I took the taxi to the hostel at 8 am. Bad idea. It was rush hour. The taxi costed a fortune. Lesson learned. She was a nice samoan lady though.

So its 9 am and the manager said the rooms not ready till 2. I have half a day to kill. I wandered the streets of auckland looking for mcdonalds for free wifi. I got there. Wifi didnt work.

I got back to the hostel to move into my room. Met my roomie for 2 days. She s cool check out the bug skin she picked up! I also went to mt eden which was just a 10 min walk away. Apparently there were a few volcanos here in auckland.
