ニュージーランド最後の数日で、ウエリントンからオークランドへ車で移動。タウポでは数年前にこの地でなくなったJasonのお父さんの遺灰を撒いた場所に行った。近くのTokaanuの温泉に立ち寄り、ハミルトンではアラタカラのはとこのエミリーとケイリブに会い、最終日はオークランド近郊に住む、4年越しのネット友達のけいちゃん宅に立ち寄った。ネットでのおしゃべりやブログでよく情報交換している仲なので初めて会った気がせず、子供達もすっかりうちとけて、とても楽しかった。またNZへ行った時にはよろしくね!(鼻をほじくっているアラタ・・・)

In the last few days in NZ, we drove up to Auckland. We stayed at Taupo, where Jason's dad died a couple of years ago. We also dipped in hot spring at Tokkanu and in Hamilton, we saw Aratakara's second cousins, Emily and Caleb. On the last day, we visited Keiko's. I got to know her on the internet and we have chatted and exchanged mother's information for over 4 years. But it was the first time to see her and her family. Well, I didn't feel we met for the first time. I felt as if we've known each other for a long time. Both children got on very well as well. (Arata is picking his nose!)
