August 2001 - North Island, New Zealand (#1)
Daisy has been to North America, Asia and Europe, but now she has another continent under her belt!   ...New Zealand is another continent, right?  Part of Australia?  Either way, I think this is the most interesting place so far.

Dear Mom and Dad -

I have just landed in Auckland, New Zealand.  Friends and I will be visiting the North Island.  Did you know that even though it is the middle of summer in the U.S., New Zealand is in the middle of winter?  Brrr.  We are all bundled up.  Will write again soon!

The lush green hill behind Daisy is Mt. Eden in front of the Auckland skyline.  Mt. Eden is an inactive volcano.  Daisy actually took a tumble down the side, but thankfully her traveling companion retrieved her.
Daisy hiked through some of the local caves.  She was a little scared of the dark, but thankfully others were with her.  They report that Daisy maintained a brave front!
