C'est LA viE

Time flies, and today is the last day of our trip....but happy that our trip had run very smoothly so far.

We dint go many places today, just gone to Auckland domain, Mission Bay and North Shore.

Photos to be shared:

Auckland domain is such a nice place, it was also the first time I been there...Never expect the winter garden was so organized and all those flowers grow so beautifully! <3 

Mum and I just couldnt stop taking photos as those flowers are so beautiful, and the entry is free!

What I really like about NZ was the natural preserved well done especially there are so many free botanical gardens around.

Dad was relaxing in the garden, looks like he owned the whole garden~ I was asking him at this bench: 'Pa~ what do u think about staying here (as in NZ)?'

Dad was like: "hmmm.....one to two wks were alright...bt not long term...' Yea, i guess that....

lol, truth is this relaxing place was not really ideal for us, who are a total busy and easily get bored Asians...

Oh well, Auckland domain is still a relatively good place to visit.

Lunch time....

We went to the De Fotein Belgium cafe at Mission Bay for Mussels!!! YUM!!

This is definitely my favourite mussel place so far, family were also very impressed with the freshness and juiciness of the mussels

we ordered 2 plates of grilled mussels and 1 pot of 1kg steamed mussels~

After lunch, we just chilled out at the beach~

Later, we gone to North shore just to kill time before I meeting my other fren, Jennifer who travelling up to Akl

Our family trip end after my family checked in at the counter at Akl International airport around 10pm...

I actually hold my tears, yea i really couldnt stand the farewell especially with my precious family.. TT

however, i will eventually see them in February! I cant wait now!!!

Overall, I am very happy with my family trip, especially that I was able to use money i earned to treat them for a pleasant trip!

I am proud that I able to make my family stayed at hotel/motels every night, and have good meals every time.

As compared to last family trip, while i was still a bloody poor student, i was not able to treat them, moreover we stayed at backpacker all time =(

Really sorry for them last time, so i just made a 180 degree changes this time, lol

the only bad thing was there were not much scenary in North island compared to South, but anyways, we had a relaxing trip as we were not rushing to see many places which was good.

I am inpatiently waiting for the next family reunion now =D
