So left Auckland on the Kiwi Experience, having a brilliant time! Weather has perked up so is nice and sunny! So we set off to Mercury Bay for the evening, We stopped at Mt Eden, which I finally got some exercise and climbed (hard bl**dy work) You get to see some pretty amazing views of Auckland from the top! We stopped in Thames for about an hour (louisa - is that where your family are from?)
Once in Mercury Bay, two of the guys from the bus, Chris and Kyle and myself decided to go and do some bone carving.. was so difficult but I have a lovely necklace out of it now! Very impressed with my technical skills! ha ha!
In the evening we all decided to go down to the beach where you can dig up the sand and it comes 'Hot Water Pools'. We all sat in holes (abit like a jacuzzi) we made, had a beer until we realised that the tide was rapidly coming in and that we would have to quickly move it to make it back over the lake thing to where the taxi was collecting us from before the tide swept us aay! Abit scary actually.. cause it was only after that I was informed that this was the beach where most drowning happen!?!?!?!?! Lovely! Don't panic anyone.. have no intentions of doing it again - however I have decided to put my name down for a skydive on Monday - ha ha, not sure I am actually going to do it yet though!!!
Next Stop Hobbiton (LOTR) and Roturua
