Reached the third destination of the world tour...New Zealand! Never thought Id say it but Im glad to get out of the sun to be honest!pretty cold here! Arrived last sunday in Auckland and hired a car for the three weeks. We've spent a week in the North island . It has been pretty active. We've been to Rotorua, a active geothermal area, and visited geysers (like in the pic!) and we went and soaked in to natural mad baths until we were kicked out. After that we drove to the Waitomo caves to see the glow worms. We abseiled, caved, did some black water rafting and rock climbed out of the caves. Was so good, loved it! Managed to dislocate my arm on the way out- ouchee!- but it is better now....dont worry mum!! :) One day we did an eight hour hike along the Tongariro Crossing (by Mout Doom in Lord of the Rings!!) Half expected Frodo to pop up from behind a rock! Was quite hardcore (we even climbed above the clouds) but it was worth it for the views....quite a few Kodak moments! In Wellington now, catching the ferry over to the south island tomo. hopefully going to do a four day trek and go to see the glaciers.
Half way through the trip already! can't believe it! Rhian and Cez are really well. Off to watch Lord of the Rings now haha. lots of love and hugs Francesca xxx
