Pretty average winter day in Auckland so while my wife went for a massage, I started a new Lego project: Nigel Mansell's Williams FW14B.

Did a rather nice ride from St Johns to Mission Bay via the Te Ara Ki Uta Ki Tai cycle way today. Coming from CHC, which has excellent cycleways, I was impressed with this. Had lunch in a busy Mission Bay.

After 10 days split between Melbourne & Adelaide, and Christmas in Melbourne, sadly it is time to head back to NZ. Had an awesome time with the family, spent too much and valued the time together. Weather is shit in Christchurch, apparently.
