The first few hours in Nz were spent in a police station reporting my purse lost! Why do I always lose everything? But we aren't going to let this affect NZ - other than the whole not being able to access any money. The views flying into Auckland were so stunning that Johno and I were kicking ourselves (and each other) for not having the foresight to get our cameras out in time. We subsequently decided that the view must have been purposefully put there just for...

Met up with johno at the hostel early on a sunday morning! I don't think I was her favourite person when i jumped on her while she was asleep, but i'm sure she missed me, so I was forgiven quickly! Then we got to making our list of absolutely everything that has to be crammed into our last week in oz :o( So far, we've had a drink in Scubar and were even given free shots (although i am almost positive that it was just milk and pineappple juice???)

They were promptly filled with vodka slushy and we made it back to Lannies. The party was awesome, so many people there, only a few from Coral Bay; us, n...

Now this was the best day ever!! Kate called and said we had Santosha (one of CBA's boats) for a day! Stuey was gonna skipper for us, so we got a group together and did some exploration dives around the reef! Kate, Macca, Me, Ollie, Liz, Nick, Lannie, Tex, Prue, Brett all went over to the dive shop and ambushed Dazza. The guys from the dive shop grabbed their gear and the rest of us borrowed stuff. Poor Daz had to work so he was a bit stroppy. But we did pinch ...
