Hi Peeps!!

So we're still cold in NZ, we have done some really cool activities, yest we did The Zorb, we all jumped into this massive inflatable ball with warm water in it and were then pushed down this massive hill, falling into each other and laughing, it was sooooo funny!!!

Then we went to do the Swoop, we were all harnessed together and looked like cocoons!! we then were elevated up into the sky about 200m, Vic had to then pull a cord to make us free fall into a massive swoop!! I was so scared, realy thought I was gonna die! he he, we got some great pic's too!

We're in a city called Rotorua, which stinks of Sulpher (pooey!) due to loads of volcanic eruptions, we watched the new Star Wars film last night too, it was wicked.

We're off to Lake Taupo today where me & Vic are gonna try and do a sky dive!! I'm scared, I think Amz needs a bit longer to cike (don't know how o spell) herself up to do it, so maybe do it in Oz (wimp!) he he.

So bye for know, take care and keep in touch, it's really cool when we hear from all of you!!

Love ya,

Lou Lou xxx

Hello Everone!!

Sorry we haven't been in touch sooner, but when we got to Fiji we went straight to the islands on a weeks tour and there was no source of contact, as we were living very basic with the Fijians! It was soooooo nice there though, wish you were here to see it, talk about relaxation!

The first Island we went to was Mana Island, which was abit of a party island, it was fun.

I did quite a few activities too, me & Vic went and did a cave trip when we got to the 1st island, which was where the Blue Lagoon was filmed starring Brooke Sheilds ask someone about if you don't know it's absolutely beautiful! I had to jump in a cave and then swim about 3 metres underwater to another cave which was in complete darkness!!! well scary! Amy was too scared to do it (wimp he he) I also did alot of snorlkelling which I know sounds silly but have never done before, not over coral reefs anyway the fish we saw and coral was so cool!

We stayed at an island called Manteray Island, which was really nice and a brand new resort so was modern, I went swimming with Manterays, which are huge huge rays up to 7ft!!!! It was sooooo cool they came right up to me, Amy & Vic didn't do it, so I went on my own (how brave am I?) Also I went on my first scuba dive!! again just me, If you ever get a chance do it, I was abit scared to start with, what with the breathing and my ears hurting and stuff, but once you get used to it and listen to the instructor it was fine, I swam right to the bottom of the sea about 14 mts and picked up a blue starfish, sea cucumber saw a pufferfish and loads of weird brilliant looking fish, I definetly want to become certified now so I can go really deep, but it's quite expensive so we'll see.

We went to another island called Kuata, which had a really nice beach and we had a really good night there, we played loads of really good drinking games, I'll teach you them when I'm home! Vic got really drunk as he kept losing and ended up going really silly and walking off, me & Amz went looking for him in a bush or something and eventually after ages of searching with about 10 other people shouting his name and waking up the whole resort found him unconsience on the beach!! I was sooooo worried cos the tide could of come in!!! anyway we found him, then got him into bed and he started puking!! How embaressing we were in a dorm with loads of other people that had to get up really early!! he he (whats he like eh?) He was famous the next day!

Our last Island on the tour was called South Sea Island which was tiny and sooo nice just like paradise, Bounty Island where the reality programme is being shot with Abi Titmass was directly opposite and sooooo near we could of swam across, but there was security surrounding it so we couldn't go and give the celebs some abuse! he he, (sorry Ric I know you wanted a pic of Abi he he)

When we finished the tour we stayed for a few nights in mainland at the beachouse which was nice but not as nice as the islands.

Anyway we left there this morining and have just arrived at our hotel in New Zealand and it's soooooo cold! compared top Fiji anyway, we get our campervan tomorrow so we can start our roadtrip!

So that should get you up to date, Any goss then?? How is everyone??

Anyway I think I've rambled on abit too much, so I better sign off now,

Love,

Lou Lou, Amz & Vic xxx
