17 hours on the plane



After we got settled in, the plane took off and we were on our way. A nice lady who lives in the U.S. but is originally from New Zealand sat next to Pete. We told her our travel plans and talked to her a bit about where she grew up and the differences between the north and south islands. The plane was nice, a bit tight, but there were so many movies to choose from... we were easily distracted. Besides, we didn't mind snuggling up close together on the plane ;)

We watched a couple movies together, then pete watched some crazy action movies while I watched some chick flicks. After about 3 or 4 movies, Pete started dozing off. I of course was restless, so I poked Pete, had him reach for the tylenol pm from his back pack, took a couple, and we were both asleep in no time. Although it wasn't a straight seven hours of sleep, (the seats weren't *that* comfortable) we still felt pretty rested when we woke up for breakfast. We watched a couple more movies and a show or two and before we knew it we were landing in Auckland!
