We began our day with a game against the Harbour Breeze. We made sure to spend extra time warming up because of the cold gym!

We racked up our second win in OT! The final score was 75-64.

After the tough game, we had the rest of the evening to explore the beautiful city of Auckland, so we went shopping, of course. The Sky Tower was an amazing sight to see on our adventures.

We clean up well! Team dinner was at the Mecca restaurant and was absolutely delicious.

To top off the day, we stopped for some New Zealand ice cream on the walk back to the hotel!

A great treat to cap the night!
