Arrived in Auckland
Crossed on the ferry on the 23rd and continued our travels in the north island staying in Palmerston North the first night
Next day we crossed over to the east coast where we stopped at Mokai canyon to ride on the flying fox which is over a kilometer long and reaches speeds of 160km as you fly down into the canyon. That night we arrived in Napier.
Spent some time in Napier Hasting in the morning before we headed up the coast staying in Opotiki that night by the beach.
Next day we went to Rotorua where we went zorbing, a big blown up ball that you hop inside and roll down the hill in. And after that went to hells gate thermal resort where we had a mud bath and soak in a thermal pool.
Drove from Rotarua up to hot water beach the following day where we had hoped to dig a hole in the sand on the beach and relax in the warm spring water that comes out of the ground but the tide was coming in. So instead we went up the road a bit to Hihea beach where we went for a dive.
Then we spent the weekend in Tutukaka with Shane, Susie and Janeanne. Where we went for another 3 dives catching some crayfish for dinner on saturday.
On sunday we went to goat island where on monday we went diving at the marine reserve, seen some masive crayfish and snapper but not allowed to take from a reserve, bummer. Seen three big sting rays as well which was pretty cool. Then it was off to Auckland.
Dropped van back yesterday, holiday home in NZ is nearly over, went so fast. Just spending rest of time here organising our trip to Thailand.
Bye 4 now
