It's now been six months to the day since we set off on our trip, I can't believe it's been that long!
We got up this morning and it was raining, we went to the restaurant at the front of our guesthouse to connect to the wifi to see if Sam and Steph would prefer to meet later instead. When we checked the messages they had said they'd been up all night being sick and hasn't slept so they wouldn't be going tubing today. We said we'd all go tomorrow instead together and for them to get some rest. So James and I got some breakfast while we were there and decided to have a computer sort day. We needed to send an email to re organise our flights so we managed to get that done and get a reply which is extremely fast. We've had a really good look at camper van hire in New Zealand too so we've got a better idea of what's available. Hopefully after getting all of the quotes today we should be able to decide on one and get it booked now our dates are sorted. We spent the rest of the afternoon sorting and using the computer, Sam and Steph asked us to send them a message when we were going out for tea because they were going to try and make it. So we sent a message and got changed to meet them. We didn't go far, just to the Aussie bar two doors down from their hotel. They looked a little pale but said they thought they ought to eat something. The guy from the Aussie bar overheard us talking and said every year is the same with lots of people getting sick and there's one place in town to blame. It turns out Sam and steph had been to this place when they first arrived here and we were still travelling here. I'm glad we didn't go! We stayed in the Aussie bar for something to eat and it started to rain so stayed for a few games of snooker. The rain was pouring down and dripping through a few holes in the roof, when it had calmed a little we decided to make a run for it back to our hotels. We made the same arrangements as yesterday for tomorrow's tubing, looking forward to it now!
