We had not planned on going to this game but Rala gave us tickets so we decided to take half days again and drive down to Rotorua only a week after the New Zealand match.

We got there for 6pm so checked in to our hotel and got ready as the match was on at 730. The Irish team were staying in our hotel so they were all around. We grabbed a quick bite to eat and then headed straight for the stadium.

The match was a lot better than last week but we still came out on the loosing side. After the game LJ was helping Rala so we headed back to the hotel and hung around there for the night.

The next day the weather was awful so any plans we had were gone. We went ourt for dinner that night but it was very quiet around so we headed back early. The next day we headed back to Auckland early and got ready for the week ahead. The next match we had to look forward to was New Zealand vs South Africa in Eden Park in 3 weeks time!!
