Hello,

So i'm writing a premature blog entry because for some reason I can't send emails from my yahoo account, first obstacle to overcome!

I have arrived safe and sound in Auckland, after what seemed like a never ending journey, I have been on 3 planes! Slept quite a bit on the Dubai-Melbourne plane journey because the 2 seats next to me were free yey! Although I can't complain, at least I had the NZ rugby team to take my mind off things ;) lol. There was a bit of an issue with the dried mango I stupidly packed into my rucksack, apparently no food in Aus or NZ! They're pretty strict over here.

Right well I better get my backside to the hostel, got to get the Airbus there, so will be my next adventure and finding lunch of course. I resisted the dirty Mcdonalds at the airport :)

Speak to you all very soon,

Lots of love, linzi xxx
