Bula! This is a long one, sorry in advance! We had a smooth flight to Nadi, Fiji, where we were greeted at the airport by lots of people singing and smiling in bright colourful shirts. First impressions were the same as you'd expect somewhere like Hawaii to be. We skipped through customs and were picked up by a mini-bus and taken to a lovely hotel - pure heaven after spending 9 weeks living in a car! We went for dinner at the hotel which was the most amazing fo...

Hey All We left Picton early evening on Saturday by ferry to the North Island. Apparently its supposed to be one of the most scenic crossings in the world, but it was raining with low cloud so we didn't see much. Three hours later we arrived in Wellington, it was still raining and dark by now so we headed to the nearest campsite and crashed out. Sunday morning dawned and it was a lovely sunny day so we drove back into Wellington to have a look around....

Some of the shallow parts didn't seem deep enough for a kayak let alone a powerful boat with 12 people on! I...

Hi Followers, On Friday we had a mooch around Dunedin town centre although there wasn't heaps to see so we headed in the direction of Lanarch Castle. When we arrived we were fairly disappointed as it looked more like a stately home so we gave it a rain check and hit the southern scenic highway. We made our way along stopping at points to view the local area. We drove down several gravel roads and stopped at Nugget Point to see a lighthouse where there w...

Hey all, We got up super early on Sunday morning and grabbed a taxi to Sydney airport. We passed some time at the airport before our flight then jumped on the plane to New Zealand. The flight went really fast and we arrived at Christchurch mid afternoon. After clearing customs and quarantine to stop us bringing muddy shoes and bugs into the country we went to collect our new orange home. We were quite lucky as we'd been upgraded to a hybrid engine spaceship whic...
