Hi guys,
Just a quick hello, as it has taken me ages to do my photos and now no time to write!! Currently at Franz JOsef Glacier on the west coast of the South Island. Am plannign to do a hike up there tomorrow or if money is ok maybe helicoptering up. We will see......
Have been having fun. Saw the Chemical Brothers in Auckland who were awesome. Better than at Glastonbury I think (to answer jonathan!!) However the next mornign was covered in red wine and very hungover. Wicked night tho, Krisys brother mike looked after me. Actually although I say looked after, him and Joe his friend are probably the reason i got so drunk! So after the Chemicals Peter got back from Australia and we managed to hire a car.We couldnt get a car quite when we wanted so instead of hanging around Auckland (which is not the most exciting place) we went over to Waiheke Island - a 30 min ferry ride from the city. It was a cool few days, very relaxed, a nice hostel, nice people. Then we headed back to Auckland for the car and the road trip began!!
First stop Taupo - did a skydive which was awesome!!It was so scary but i went from the highest height 15,000 feet and it was such an experience. Cant imagine anything else like it, it was wicked. I have a dvd so when i get home there will be a screening. Its slightly embarassing as i dribble half way through. So cool!!
Running out of time so quick run down........... After Taupo went to Wellington which is a real cool city, went to the Museum saw the government builings etc.
Then onto Nelson where we went to Abel Tasman National park, did some Kayaking and walking. Then travelled down to Hokitika via the pancake rocks - v cool. And now at the Glaciers. V excited about goign up them.
So all good in summrya, lots of travelling but good! Bye xxxx
