Day 80: Blues match and Kodaline

Over the weekend we got to watch the Blues against the Highlanders, where the Blues won. The warm up to the match definitely didn't have anything on the Crusaders match which was amazing, but it was a pretty good match (from my vague understanding of rugby and according to the people next to us!). We also had a pretty funny evening on Saturday at some Irish bar. Then on Sunday we had a bit of a nightmare as we are both using travelling cash cards to try and save some money with ATM fees etc, but they decided to block us from getting any money out today so we had about $5 between us for the majority of today which was interesting to say the least. Then both our cards randomly unblocked themselves this evening to our relief. Anyway this evening we went to see an Irish band called Kodaline, and once we got there I realised I only really knew one of their songs and definitely didn't know what any of them looked like. But they turned out to be incredible, and we almost considered trying to get tickets to see them in Melbourne as well!! They were so so good and it was definitely one of our better "planned" ideas we have had so far. (Usually when we plan things they turn out to go really badly, but when we don't plan anything something exciting usually happens!!)

 








Good cure for a bad headache!

Packing time-not going well
