What a great day ay! Arrived in Auckland at 6am this morning, though it doesnt feel as if I did, jetlagged! No sooner, i'd arrived, I was off on a free tour of the city of sails, as I couldnt check in til 2pm. Within minutes, one of the group was randomly selected to jump off the Sky tower, the southern hemispheres tallest building! Awesome! Got it on vid too! We went all round the harbour, and up a dormant volcano, at least I hope so, to get some fantastic shots!
Waitin to fly to Auckland was an interesting experience, kept making mental notes, as to "I've got to write about this on my blog", to the woman who opened her suitcase which was rammed with sweet potatoes to the man who was so drunk no one from the BA staff could wake him up and he missed his flight! Got chatting to a nice Canadian woman who bought me a beer! The flight over was long, but managed to get some sleep thankfully. Was picked up early this morning - and in the airport it was fantastic to see native Maori so soon, women dressed beautifully and men wearing skirts!
I've just been to grab something for tea for later, but i'm off for a nap, and have already tried some NZ beer, good stuff, what a first day! I have all my itinery, and off to Rotorua on Monday, 7am! Yikes! I have all day saturday and sunday to my own devices and there is plenty to do! Not all extreme I might add, lol!
