That would be a drought in NZ, wouldn't it?

Seriously, Carnival Spirit looks beautiful all lit up at night.

That would have been about the only day of rain that Auckland has had all year. We got about 10 minutes of drizzle yesterday. All the other ships in (including the Dawn Princess today) have had fabulous weather. So jealous!
