Hello! its been a while but only managed to get on the tinternet today.. its been a VERY full packed week..

so we started by making our way up to the bay of islands..and i was SO nice to get out of Auckland..we did a walk there to a waterfall that was 10km's and after lazing about in auckland for 3 weeks..it was quite hard work! but the scenery was amazing so it made it well worth it. We then left to head back down to Auckland!! but we only spent a few hours there luckily and went up the sky tower..which has such good views. We went on to Rotarua..which actually stunk of eggs the whole time..and you would think you could get used to it..but you really dont.. we went to a maori village here and saw loads and loads of hot springs etc. loads of bubbling mud..we went white water rafting and did the highest commercial waterfall available which was 7 metres.. i loved it it was so much fun. we are definately going to have to do it again.

Then we went to Taupo and saw the lake which was beautiful and a bit of sightseeing..then somehow ended up doing a 50 ish metre bungy..i have never been so scared in my life..its crazy and so hard to explain but it was amazing..although i felt like my eyes were going to pop out of my head.it was above a river and was such nice scenery which just made it 10 times better,

Then it was onto Wellington where we stayed for 1 night.. just had a bit of an explore.. weve seen so much stuff from the lord of the rings and narnia..like mount doom. Caught the ferry over to the south island..i made myself sleep as i didnt want to get sea sick..so when i woke up..we were nearly there and the scenery has completely changes..the south island is just mountains mountains mountains..

We stayed in Nelson for 2 ngiht..where we did a SKYDIVE..which was just the most awesome thing i've ever done..i wasnt as scared as i would of been as i had already pushed it with doing the bungee..we went up in a tiny shoe box of a plane..we jumped from 13,000ft..freefell for 50 second..which was amazing..then got a few mintues just floating about while the parachute was up looking over where we were..there were 2 national parks in sight so you can imagine how good it was.

Calmed things down after that..as that was my big expense and even though this tour we are doing was a mistake as its just completely overpriced..im trying to look at the positives even though i have lost quite a bit of money.. we are complaining to the company nearly every day so we will have to see where that gets us..

we are currenty in the fox glacier..which is really cool..we are doing a hike up it tomorow..

we are just about to leave to walk to some glow worm caves..as its dark..wev done loads of walks to random things like lakes and trees..they're always really nice and we've been so so lucky with the weather..nearly everyday sun..i think we are taking it with us everywhere we go.

I'll put some pics up when im next online.. just have to check my bank balance which is always the worst bit. we are going to queenstown tomorow..which means another long long drive.
