Dunkin’ Down Under

Day 515: February 26, 2026 – Auckland, New Zealand



There were no Dunkins in New Zealand when I lived there in the 1990s. So imagine my surprise and joy when Fiona told me there was one at a mall in Auckland! She indulged me in making two pilgrimages to my happy place.

    How many are headed back to the ship? 🍩🍩🍩

    1. Unfortunately, none. I wasn’t going back to the ship for a couple days, so they were gone long before that…

  4. You’re in your happy place

    1. This is definitely one of my happy places.

  5. New Zealand is clearly the place for you, with lots of friends and plenty of donuts.

    1. It is indeed!
