Ok well we spent 2 spells in Auckland, 1 was before xmas and the other after for new year! !st spell was on arrival from Fiji which we were all glad to be leaving...sounds so bad eh!? fed up of all that sun, sea and sand!! haha! Anyway 1st impressions were excellent a well balanced mix between America and England!! We stayed 4 nights in Auckland and really that was enough though as we were quite bored come the end!! We saw the sky tower and that was about it!! ...

There were things broken,things dirty and we also shared our room with ...

Well........New York really is another world!! We had 3 days to visit the Big Apple and we just about managed to squeeze everything in. We stayed in the Big Apple hostel which is located smack bang in the middle of Times Square so any of the other attractions are within either walking distance or a short subway ride.Subway costs 2 dollars so not expensive at all!!
