New group...new adventure starts today. Had a pick up from base hostel at 7am. About 15 people in the new group and a tour guide called lucky :). Our bus was called mrs Bailey hehe.
Today we were heading north upto paihia. New Zealand is no where near as big as oz and a lot shorter drives which is def a bonus.
We started driving out of the city and the scenery was amazing. Its so beautiful and so green. Stopped to look at a giant kauri tree which was 800yrs old and hugee. We all gave it a hug as it's meant to bring sunshine. The weather was pretty good today though. Nice n hot just how I like it :)
We then headed to goat island marine reserve where we could snorkel or explore. Again really pretty especially with the sunshining. Didn't go in the water as it was kinda cold in there.
Drove onto the bay of islands and went to the waitangi treaty grounds. Our accommodation was at salt water lodge. Did some food shopping for the next day and went out for pizza...although we ended up at the wrong one lol. Was nice getting to know everyone :)
Then went to a bar where they were having a best kiwi man comp lol. They had to pick some girls to start it off and two of the girls from our group got picked. They had to do the best chat up line, unhook bra straps, arm wrestle n push ups. Was good entertainment :).
