Hello again for the last time from New Zealand - the land of Kiwis (the birds, fruit and people!) and of many sheep and beautiful scenery which I will miss so much! I have been doing loads since I last updated as that was some time ago now! Have been waiting to use the cheap internet in Auckland as I was in a beautiful tiny place by the sea for ages with the cheapest internet $6 an hour and it's $2 here much better! ($6 is like 2.50 quid!) I last wrote my postcar...

Hello again everybody! Another Gracie postcard! I have done so much since I last updated the website and spent quite a bit of money - but it's all been worth it! I left Wellington pretty early the next morning after writing my last journal update, and had great views of the Kapiti coast then some fab cliffs running alongside the river next to the road. It didn't take too long to get to my (and only mine) stop off at Turangi - it's not a Kiwi Experience overnight ...

Hello again! I know I said I would be updating from Kaikoura but I thought the more I update the shorter the postcards will be so it will be less effort for everyone to read! I never went paragliding in the end the weather was too bad but I am going tomorrow yay! I said goodbye to some friends Friday morning and the rest on Saturday which was a bit sad but its' cool being on my own I don't mind I have chatted to quite a lot of people and my new room mates seem ni...
