Jade fish hook'

We are back on board ship after a tour of Aukland. We liked it alot. It is clean, green and a lovely city. We woke to find a block of flats outside our balcony to find its actually a Hilton hotel! They built it on a wharf but all the sun beds outside are not getting much sun today! The museum was magnificent. Lots of Maori


artefacts that tell their own story. Having converted to Christianity much of their spirituality has been retained and I found a jade pendant which represents a fish hook that gives safety in travelling to the wearer. Strength and love are also included on the package. I am wearing it! They seem to have forgiven us the European market slap in the face and their economy is in better shape than ours now so it's an ill wind' A very good day. The mix of races seem to work well here! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
