ok it has been a while and time has flown by! i am at the end of my time in NZ and thought i would tye it all up before i leave for Fiji!!
so i have got to think back to what i have been up to! we ended up leaving the north island and moved down the west coast of the South island really quickly as the buses were all booked up so we could nto hop off!!
we went to Franz Josef and the weather was nto great in fact it was horrible! we booked to do the full day hike! but it was rainging so heavy! ( i have never been so wet in my life it was horrid!! we got so cold btu the glacier was pretty amazig! we had to go down early as the river at the bottom was getting too big for us to cross!
we then moved on to Wanaka where we stayed for a few days to catch up with some girls we had met on East as and we decided to spend the rest of our time in NZ with them! in wanaka they have the best Cinema ever it is all comfy sofas and you can even sit in a morris mina to watch the film ( we decided that might to be a tad uncomfortable!) and the best bit in the break you can get fresh jsut out of the oven cookies and homemade ice cream!! yummy!!!
Wanaka was really lvoely we went on long walks around the lake! there was snow on the montains! if i was going to live somewhere in NZ it would be here!!!
we left Wanaka and move to Queenstown via Puzzle world which was so much fun!!!
in Queenstown we rented a car with the girls and went to see a rugby match in Invercargill! it was brill such a good game! very diffrent to the matches in england they players are pretty rude to the other team!!
we took 4 days and went on the bottom bus which visits places right down South, in this time we saw sea lions, penguins and giant sea weed!
Milford sounds
Long windy trip to milford sounds, stopping at a mirror lake that was incredable! we reached the wharf and boarded the ferry, and enjoed a big buffet lunch. it was so blowy on the deck we thought we were going to blow away but the views were lovely! shame it was cloudy but you cant have everything!!! we spent and extra night in Milford at a lodge in the middle of nowhere intending to go Kayaking the next day but our driver in formed us " abomb is going to hit tonight" we were like WHAT!!!! then found out he meant a storm! so kayaking was off but we jsut chilled out in the lodge and got bored silly till we could catch the bus at 4 to queenstown!
We spent a few days in Queenstown! wnet on a Bar crawl whichw as very messy! hired a 3 person bike and a chopper and went riding around the city getting some very funny looks but had great fun!
we then court the bus to Twizel where we had to get a connecting buss to Mt cook village where we sent 2 nights! we went on lots of walks and bike rides!! it was amazing! in one day we did a 5 hour walk then a 16 km b8ike ride with a 40 min walk in the middle! even thow parts fo the ride killed us we felt so healthy and good!!
we then moved on to Gerdine were we wnet rafting and brought some knitting needles to start knitting! and Dale and Ellen deiced to join me!! we look well cool all sat knitting!!!
um... time has run out sorry about the brief update!!
