We started in the Koru lounge...our membership to the Koru Club, was our reason for flying with Air NZ. You have take advantage of the perks.Quick Check in, Priority baggage and the lounge, where one can partake of food and wine and generally relax whilst waiting for the plane.
My personal porter, in charge of stowing the carry on bags.
As it turns out Air NZ's inflight service was excellent and the long 24 hour flight was a doodle.The food was very tasty. Dale's Lacto/ova food pleased him no end and I was well pleased with my meat eating choices.
Moroccan Lamb, Butter Chicken, for dinners...Frittata with sausage and tomato for breakfast, Oriental Noodles with Pork for brunch. Fruit salads with yoghurt, cheese and bickies,an orange mousse, shrimp salad and a rice salad for starters. Plenty of very good NZ white wines, Mimosa for Brunch and pleasant crew to serve us.
One of Dale's dinners.
My Moroccan Lamb with Peas and Kumara
First stop Hong Kong...last time I was there, there was only one airport, which was a huge challenge for the pilots as they landed virtually inbetween builings.
If ever we get a bit short, Dale could take a job as cleaner, he looks charming
I saw 6 current movies and Series 5 of "The Entourage", (I loved that). The whole time was well spent. 
The covered boat on the left, belongs to Elise's family. We are hoping for fine weather on Saturday, a trip around the canals is in the plan.
