Go All Blacks!

Seeing the All Blacks play was on our bucket list here. They are a force to be reckoned with in the world rugby scene and their players are the closest thing New Zealand has to heroes. This year we lucked out when our friends managed to get us some cheaper tickets for their game with France.

I had a lizard conference up north that day so had to take the train, packed with standing room only All Blacks fans, from Waikanae to meet up the rest of the crew for pre-game dinner.

Face tattoos were a must do for the game

Go All Blacks!!
