Safely back in Christchurch after our Magic tour. Money is running very low, which is annoying as we saw lots of activities which we wanted to do, especially in Queenstown. After Franz Josef we headed to Lake Wanaka. As soon as we arrived we booked to do a skydive. Within half an hour we were at the airport! We jumped from 12000feet over lakes and mountains, we could see Mount Cook in the distance and had a perfect day for it. We both thought it was the most amazing thing we have ever done, and can't wait to jump again from even higher! We got given a dvd and lots of photos each so will show them when we get back home. We have uploaded some more pictures into the album called 'Latest New Zealand Pics'. Also in Lake Wanaka we visited a puzzle world, which was okay. After Wanaka we went to Queenstown. We really liked it here, unlike the other towns it had a lot to offer. Unfortunately we only had one full day, which we spent in Milford Sound, so would really like to go back to Queenstown for longer. Milford Sound was very pretty, we saw all of the scenery from a cruise boat. From Queenstown we went to Dunedin, where we went to Cadbury World Chocolate Factory! Apart from that we weren't too keen on the city, especially after seeing much nicer places. From here we went to Lake Tekapo, very small pretty place with great views. Would have liked to have spent more time here to do some cycling and kayaking, and apparently its got the best rafting here in New Zealand, so we're making lots of notes on how to do this holiday next time. After Tekapo it was back to Christchurch, stopping off at a Cookie Factory on the way, where Ash bought a whole 1kg of giant cookies for one fifty.

Tomorrow we leave New Zealand and head for Sydney, looking forward to seeing here and meeting up with some people we met in Fiji. For what we have seen of New Zealand we definately want to return, it has lots to offer and would encourage anybody to come here. Also a belated Happy Birthday to the Uncle T!

Until next time.......................xx
