Hello,
Here I am in Queenstown, having a pretty good time, but first i will tell you about the otherparts of the south Island.
So we went on to Rotorua, it spells like egg there, because of all the sulpher pools, its not too overpowering. It was raining a lot so we didnt do much when we first got there, However we did go to a mauri night, We got to see some entertainment and eat and all you can eat buffet, the meat was a bit chunky for me, being a traditional Mauri feast but i ate the lamb. was good to eat some proper food...and we got pudding!!! Then the next day we went for a walk roundthe Free sulpher park opposite but it rained again. Katie and I also went toa mud bath and real natural sulpher park...it was so much fun but i forgot tp take my necklaces off and sulpher ruins them. Luckily the people there managed to polish them back with solution...but we couldnt not get the sulpher smell oiut of our skin and clothes and towel, even after a wash. then my jewellery wen tarnished again because there was still sulpher in the pours of my skin. However i have sinced been to a silver shop and the man there plosished them agian for free. Phew...
Then we went on to Taupo....well this is where i had planned to do my skydive as soon as we got there, but once again the weather was not good and it got cancelled...we were gutted but it was rescheduled for the following morning. so we went out that night, it was a good night as i remember. then in the morningwe went to reception to ask abpout our skydive, but once again, it was cancelled...then we were all in bed and suddenly it came on the tannoy that all skydivers needed to be downstairs in 15 mkinutes... we all leaped out of bed and ran outside, all confused as to what we had heard but sure anough, the skydive was back on...off we went. It was amazing, I went for the full 15000 and it was so worth it. it was such a rush, I can hardly remeber it now, it was over in secinds i wish i could do another one so that I could appreciate it more. The next day in Taupo we went on a little train ride if i remeber correctly...that was fun.
I have been sitting at the computer for about 4 hours uploading my photos because it is so slow...because the internet came free with my bungy but just realised its 6.15pm and i havnt seen katie since i left for a bungy at 11am so think i better head back to the hostel. but i will be back to tell you more later...
oh and i cant seem to reply to messages individually so i will reply on here,
Lizzy, im pretty sure to be a writer you should be able to pass English Lit with out too much trouble. and that all sounds good but not sure how to story board. im well jealous about Glasto and that remeind me, Henny wants my tent as she part owns it, might need you help or vickys in helping mum pack it up. and yea, hoping that having longer in Oz will be nice, but were going to stay with katies family or a bit so it will give us more time to do that. speak soon x x x
Until then TTFN x x x
