Im terrible at keeping up to date with this blog!!
We are in New Zealand now, its INCREDIBLE here!! Really is more beautiful than you even think it is!! We have been here a few weeks now. Met our friends Ryan & George from home and since then we have traveled from Auckland up to Pahia and then down through the whole of the north island. Have seen some great things. Rotorua was quite a cool place with its geothermal hot pools. Steam rising out of the drains and all that kind of thing!!We have seen bits of hobbiton, jumped of 6m high waterfalls,been in caves in the pitch black with giant spiders, explored the old mines,seen wellington by night. We have done so many amazing things, its so great here. We headed down south about 1 week ago and since then its been all go!! We have had a night in an old pub hosted by an 82 year old man, he cooked all 40 of us dinner which was probably the best meal a lot of us have had in a long while. We have gone on midnight walks in the woods leas only by the glowworms! Had many fancy dress parties, and the best thing. Climbing Franz Joseph glacier, that really was amazing!! It changes every day, and when we were there our guide found a cave no one has ever seen before and it was HUGE. Very weird that if we went back in 1 month it would be COMPLETELY different. We had a bit of drama, 2 of our people being air lifted out by helicopter! But we are all alive and well now. We have been traveling on the KIWI bus which is totally great. We have a lovely driver who gets us in on all the group activities (admittedly most of these take place within a pub) and a great bunch of people. There are about 10 of us who have been together on the bus since Auckland so we have got quite close. Its our last day as a big group today so we are off to get some hoodies made and then going out for a meal and then probably heading to one of Queenstown's hundreds of bars!! Doing some water sports this week which is exciting before heading off to Christchurch and then probably Dunedin.
Anyway, its just a quick one.
Having an incredible time, cant believe its over soon!!
Missing you all xxx
