We have arrived on the North Island of New Zealand!!
The ferry over from picton to Wellington was the slowest ferry i have ever been on!!! it took 3 and a half hours to cross the cook strait which i could of swam faster!!! It was pritty though as it went though queen charlotte sound so there were lots of lovely mountains.
Wow Wellington - it has people - and shops!!! much different from some of the south island places we had visited with a population of 200!
Wellington was lovely - i really enjoyed it. We went to see Pirates of the Carribean 3 in cinema - not just any cinema but this cinema has the largest screen in the southern hemisphere.
We also went to the Theatre and saw Disneys High School Musical - I dragged James along as i really liked the film, it was really good and we were lucky to catch it as it was on tour.
From Wellington we traveled north to Taupo, which is a volcanic giant lake and there are lots of things associated with volcanoes here such as gysers, hot mud pools, hot springs etc
tomarrow we are going to the 'craters of the moon' which is a volcanic landscape with lots of gysers and steam which looks like the surface of the moon. As you can probably tell I am in my element here as I love volcanoes.
