Just arrived here in the capital. It looks pretty nice actually, but we haven't had a real good look around yet. Planning on having a really relaxing day cause we're all knackered!! Jamie did the highest bungy in NZ yesterday and I jumped out of another plane. Unfortunately we couldn't get to 15,000ft again cause of the cloud cover so it was only a 12,000ft but it was easily as good. We all just went and paid for the best showers in this hotel and I think we're g...

So this is I think our 4th day in Queenstown... maybe... you seriously lose track of time when you're out here!!! I don't think any of us are really that impressed with Queenstown as a place. While the views and surroundings are amazing, after everything we've heard about the town, it really hasn't lived up to our expectations at all. Which is a shame. I think maybe everyone we spoke to just hyped it up too much. Friday night was ok, we went out to an irish pub w...

Ok so let's back-track about 16 hours. There I was, legs hanging off the edge of a plane with nothing but a man strapped to my back with a parachute... "What the f**k am I doing?!?!?!" Here's the little ginger kid (who is so scared of heights he couldn't even go up the London Eye) about to throw himself out of a bloody tin can with an engine and plummet 15,000ft towards the most beautiful landscape I've ever seen. I figure, "If I'm gonna die, at least there's a n...

In Greymouth right now on the slowest computer in the world and its probably costing me about $400 a minute. That picture is of the fox glacier and we're about to go there once we leave this bloody cafe. There's a load more pics there for ya'll, so appreciate them as it took me AGES! Not much going on here, just trying to see as much as we can! I accidently left one of my shoes outside last night and there just happened to be a torrential downpour, lucky I've got...

Ok so here's the situation. We have just arrived in Westport on the upper-west coast of the south island, and it's been a bit of a ride. Last time I posted we were in Wellington, preparing ourselves to stay up all night in order to get the ferry to the south island at 3 in the morning. Well that didn't work out as we'd hoped, cause after buying the tickets earlier that day (costing us $100 each might i add), we went to a bar, walked all the way back to the van an...
