Off in the morning with a tender ride to Waitangi, then a boat trip to Russell and around the islands. Bought some wine and T-shirts (and fridge magnet!). Had an excellent meal on the boat.

We'd been before, so we got a tender to the main port, had a coffee, saw the Ukuleles and other music being played, and bought a T-shirt! Quite hot and sunny, and got back to the ship just in time for a light lunch and do the laundry!
After some discussion, we remembered we'd been here before. Firstly, a coffee and the market, then a wander around town, followed by some local beer and frites, before getting some bottled water and coffee for the machine in the cabin.
