Its always a cricket score when the ABs play)in the final game.<br />Despite not doing an on-field Haka the New Zealanders were more than fired up for this one.<br />The Welsh were completely outplayed.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37669684-8720381925522928089?l=robertbland.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Robert Blandnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37669684.post-86658546443433083642006-11-23T09:49:00.000-08:002006-12-07T23:13:58.837-08:00Today we are travelling New Zealand's State Highway 1 down to Wellington from Auckland.<br />In fact we are staying at Turangi overnight so we should be able to visit Mt Ruapehu and take a few snapshots with our new Fuji digital camera.<br />We are going for the wedding of our neice which takes place on Sunday.<br />Its spring here in New Zealand and finally we are getting some warm weather, its certainly been to qoute The Beatles "A long cold lonely winter".
