Au Revoir

Friday 24th March
We were up before dawn, but no swims this morning. After breakfast B and Mike packed the last of their bags. We went ashore as the sun rose over hills, bathing Imagine in its golden glow. We trudged up the hill with their over sized bags full of clothes they never needed and borrowed a car to take them to the airport.
It was a quiet ride, only interrupted by B asking if we should turn back to check if the hatches were closed, then asking if we could take a look at the other side of Auckland, anything to delay getting to the airport. Mike said “fine, just drop me at a bus stop so I can get to the plane on time”. Mike was eager to get back to Sydney and family, but I dont think B was looking forward to going back to work.
After we dropped them off at the airport in plenty of time for their flight, we went and visited Sue’s sister. We did a little shopping on the way back to Imagine, then it was rest and relax time, before we start getting Imagine ready to go off shore again.
