Happy easter! Today I was officially crossing over myself back to Kaikoura! We did a quiz on the bus in the morning which helped pass the time, then got to Christchurch and said goodbye to half the bus...and picked up LOADS more people - every seat was taken! A serious amount of Americans too, they were all studying in Auckland and it's the holidays apparently. We headed on through to Kaikoura, stopping for lunch along the way. When we got there I met a guy ...

We had another early start today, heading for Rangitata! On the way we stopper in a place called Fairly and i had one of the best pies ever in a bakery there! Later on we stopped in a town called Geraldine where some people went white water rafting and the rest of us just had a look around town. It was a really cute wee place. There was a Market on so we had a look and there was the most amazing salad dressings ever there!! Would have bought some if they'd been...

This morning we left Queenstown on our new Stray bus! We were heading north again to Mt Cook. We left at 9 and had a few stops along the way, including Lake Tekapo which was absolutely stunning!!

He also talked really slowly and left really long pauses in between talking rubbish where he left the microphone on and you could just hear him breathing!! Not the best craic in the world. Jay...

We were up early again this morning ad Christie was doing the Nevis bungy, and we were both going to do the swing! It was kind of nice going up just to watch Christie and not freaking out haha. I was able to go across with her to the cable car that you jump from which was really cool - scary enough in itself, I had to wear a harness and all! I knew as soon as I was there that I had made the right decision not to do it - no chance whatsoever of me doing that jump ...
