Kate and Kate's Travel Journal
hey hey hey
once again its been a while i'm afraid but better late than never. (its foulkes doing this btw)
so we left sunny gorgeous thailand on the 5th of may after a bit of a nightmare journey from the south where 'we was robbed'. organised a delightful night bus journey back to bangkok just in time for some serious shopping (for essential warm clothing.. obviously....) and then our flight to nz. we paid good money for it and then half way through the journey were told that actually there had been a mistake and we had to pay lots of money to continue the journey. which is rude. but it all worked out ok - paid up for a crappy bus and arrived a ok, but was a bit of an arse. we were really lucky though as that was the first time we had been proper ripped off.
so we did the essentials only shopping and then headed onto another epic journey to nz.
after some serious plane - age, we arrived and had the joy of meeting up with the kate no. 3 - of the wildsmith variety - which is very cool.
we hung out in auckland for a couple of days doing more essentials only shopping and we did a stray bus tour of the city which was free and fun. other than that was a bit of shock coming from cheapy thailand to expensive nz - and is cold but v nice and we are in dorm rooms.... getting used to it tho. its proper nice here. really good change i think. can see why ppl from uk want to move here - all the good bits of eng i think. and with extras like random whales and sharks in auckland harbour... bizzare.
anyway - flew down to christchurch from auckland today and start our kiwi experience tour tomorrow morning which we are really excited about heard really good stuff about it and yes mother i will be ski diving, white water rafting and the like. but don't panic, i am proper safe so its ok.
ummmmmm any other news.. am trying to put pics on now but its not looking promising.... will keep trying. love
