A minor setback

After the Auckland Coast to Coast we drove to the supermarket in our new car.

After a quick shop we got back to the car and I put the key in to unlock it and noticed that the lock fell inside the car and was loose. Argh! I gave the keys to Fem who managed to unlock her door but also pushed her lock into her door as well. Double Argh! So now if we lock the car the only way we can get back in is by unlocking the boot and crawling in to open a back door that way.

Sigh….

So now we have postpone the departure to Wellington until the locks are fixed. And since today (Monday) is a public holiday in Auckland we have to wait until tomorrow before we can get it checked out by a mechanic. Plus more cost on the initial car repairs… frustrating but not much we can do about it.
