Have had a good last few days. Yesterday we caught a ferry over to Devonport and climbed Mt Victoria. What absolutely amazing views, I still can't believe how green everthing is. Also went to The Auckland Public Library which was three floors of amazing!!!! I think our library has a much bigger collection but just not the physical spaces that only enhance the collections. After lunch we were back at the hospital and Nigel was up for a walk around the ward on some metal crutches. So far no hideous side effects from the chemo, just some nausea.
This morning we caught a bus to the museum and spent a few hours walking around. I was amazed by the kids. They were so uninterested in all the static displays, and yet as soon as the displays became interactive, I couldn't drag them away! Very interesting statement on kids that are born with a mouse in their hands! They especially loved the volcano display and the hands on oceans areas.
They have given Nigel a walking frame with a seat built in, and he has been hooning around the ward. The nurses have told him to slow down!! The kids are doing some homework and I am about to go and do some more uni readings.
Thanks for stopping by!!

so glad all is going as well as can be. NZ is definitely a beautiful country - I was amazed at the green too! Glad you are getting to enjoy your visit a little. HopeNigel's treatment does all it's supposed to do. Love Sal
