Hello!

Well, we got into New Zealand a few days ago now, Auckland is a really nice city. 6ur first night we met with Chris and had a few beers at the hostel then we went out to a club, but it was way too busy and we were too tired so we came home! The next day we explored Auckland, we went up the sky tower, it had some good views.

We had no way of getting around New Zealand, we heard that the intercity coaches were pretty good so we booked our coach tickets - my credit card got rejected... for the first time Uh-Oh!
That night we chilled at the hostel and waited up for the rugby, but then we gave up and went to sleep. The next day we set off north for the bay of islands... Pahiha exactly. We set off and got to the town and it was nice it was pretty small and quiet. We went and booked a tour out to the islands. Then got fish and chips by the sea - Hoki and chips is nice. Then we got a few beers in and sat and drank then went out to a bar, played pool for a few hours then went back to sleep!
The next morning we woke up at 8am and headed for the dock and got on the boat, the tour said we would see dolphins and it happens 9/10 times... we weren't dissapointed. We had dolphins jumping out the water right in front of us and surfing the boat. I got some good photos i think. It was so cool, it was the first time I've ever seen dolphins and they are really big! We also saw a baby one it kept showing off and we saw it throw a fish in the air then jump and catch it. Cool guy.

Then we carried on with the tour and saw most of the islands. We saw the hole in the rock which is.... erm... a hole in a rock. After the whole in the rock we saw where the treaty of New Zealand was signed and were the oldest town is (Russell) .
All cool stuff. Then we got bored off Pahiha, there is not much more you can do here, other than get a tour out to the islands, so we came back to Auckland to catch a bus onto Waitomo. Which we will be doing tomorrow. At the moment we are at the hostel. We are going to a bar in a sec - english themed!
I just ate 6 egg omlette.. and I feel pretty ill!

Well, anyway I will probably update you when we get to Rotoroua... sorry paps could go to the Coromandel we all wanted to go but, our bus doesn't go there and it is pretty expensive to go there!

peace and love and stuff
