Well it was a very long time ago now since weleft new zealand, it was non stop so sorry for not fillin u all in on the end of our time tthere. swear we did a journal for franz josef but its gone!! boo!! franz josef was amaazin-a well small town surrounded by mountains, and yes u guessed it a glacier. the town was well borin so we played lits of connect 4 and monopoly, but the highlight of course was the glacier. we did a heli-hike which involved gettin a helicopter to a remote part of the glacier, hikin around on the glacier a bit (whcih was too amazing for words) then helicopter back down! was so great!!
We stayed a night in greymouth (nothing to do there but the hostel was amazin- global backpackers or something) before gettin the infamous train to christchusrch. meant to b one of the best train journeys in the world, and the views were breathtakin, but uinfortunatley c deleated all the pics!! boo- but we got them developed b4 so we have copies if any1s interested in seeing them when we get back.
As for christchurch- we didnt rate it much at all. although it had a good dnb scene but as we had to check in4 our plane to oz at 4.00am we didnt get a chance to sample it!!gutted!! we instead got to the airport 4 11.30, slept a bit then checked in for our mamouth journey. To get to new york for jules and floras wedding we had to fly to melbourne, then onto sydney- from there we went to LA (where the rude security man made cess cry when he put her in isolation for snatchin her boarding card!!!!) and finally to new york- around 36hours of travlleing altogether, more if u include the 6hr train journey we'd done earlier that day!
New Zealand in general was asmazing and we have to come back and spend more time there- if your going 2weeks is not enough, south island is beautiful but we loved the north too with all the maori culture!!! Next stop, new york!!xxxxxxxxxxx
