On Sunday we   met with the American Ham at Ian’ s  home.  We left
at about 10:00  for Auckland reaching Hamilton at about midday
stopping for lunch there.  We heard Alan on the radio just as
he was getting home so we did not have a chance to speak to him directly.
After lunch we continued on to Auckland  Driving past Huntley power station.
 When I got to Auckland I checked into new President Hotel where I was
upgraded to a two room  suite.   After looking around Auckland I ate tea
at a local pizza shop.
