now ive recovered from the mental queenstown antics, packed my bags for fiji and prepared 3 bacon butties for my 16hours in airports stint....im ready to update you on the gosss.
after the wonders of relaxing in franz josef ( hot tub - $6 meals - ensuite ), we hit the road to wanaka. w***a was a time for relaxing, watching movies and having banter with lucy amy(sudductive) and max, we then prepared ourselves for queenstown which we were told was going to be absolute carnage!,

(the first week of queenstown reporting has just deleted !! so il give a brief update as credit is low!! bloody computers!),
it involved
- bungy jumping 134 m to the floor in a superman costume!, 2nd highest in the world
-lots of drinking - dancing - socialising - laughing
- me max ben sam andy and chralie (who knows nick my cousin) getting a flat for 8 nights!
- eating the best burger ever (fergburger!)
- playing on an awesome mini golf course!
- flying down a track in nothing but a luge!, racing - crashing! epic!
- and generally eating lots of cheap food / the odd cheeky subway!,

(this part i managed to save!...) the 30th of june onwards!
waking up at 7 in the morning , cooking bacon butties, getting the salapets on and packing my day bag with a $1 pie was the way to start a days skiing !, we got athe first shuttle bus to the slopes (coronet peak), and every day me and ben skied together, well he was a snowboarding scumbag ..but we managed to get over that fued and we were the same ability so we flew around to mountains, while andy and sam had snowboarding lessons, but we were within the first 10 peole to get on the gondolas ! , it was insane... hardly anyone on the runs - great snow - jumps, drops, off peist everthing we could of wished for!, although we were both knackered by lunch we powered on till 4pm when the last bus went back to queenstown, this took place for 3 days ! all of which were dam sunny except for a few hours on the second day!,
we found our favourite run which involved a steep run (arnolds way) then an off peist section which led us into a area where there wer natural drops and jumps through rocks etc!..it was mad , so so good, and it felt really weird skiing on a gap year...some people might of refered to us as 'flashpackers!' haaa.
After three awesome days (3 of the best!), we all recovered in our flat, watching day shows like jeromy kyle, films - drinking tea- eating pasta and enjoying our heated beds! we only had a few days till we had to catch the bus to christchurch, so this was the best way to spend those days!..braveheart was seen twice! epic!,
we woke up early on the 5th of july to catch our bus only to see 6 inchs of snow outside!...b******s!, bus cancelled..trip to subway! - realxing ..again! after some brilliant snow ball fights!.. i took one to the face resulting in a red mark for a good 4 hours!, the next day we got on the kiwi bus as most of the snow was gone, when we set off the driver said "be prepard to be sleeping on this bus tonight , as conditions were bad!", eventually (10 and a half hours later ) we arrived in christchurch ...checked in ...ate pasta (standard stuff), and prepared ourselves to watch the nadal federa final!, what an epic match ..the tv room errupted when nadal won! loved it,
n e way the last few days in christchurch have envoled subway's, sleeping , lots of games of pool and yep more relaxing / preparing to go to fiji!,
i fly out of auckland tomro afternoon, so am flying to auckland tonight and sleeping in the airport (as the flight late on tonight is 100 dollers cheaper than n e other!?!?! madness)
so the next destination is fiji for 9 days ...then LA for 2 ....then NYC for a week...
sadly not long to go now!,
look forward to seeing everyone tho'
lots of love billy
