Auckland (pronounced Oakland) is the City of Sails. New Zealand has 4 million people, 30 million sheep and 70 million opossum. Best wool is Merino and possum. Possum is warm, Merino is strong. I was going to buy a sweater, but they were $425!!! Hills are dormant volcanoes. City is built on them. The North Island is surround on 2 sides by the Tasman Sea and the other 2 by the Pacific Ocean.
