Hello all,
Thought i would expand on this a little more as i missed sooo much out due to rushing the other day!!!
Sorry not blogged in a while - things have been crazy here!!! We went out in Wellington and were dancing on the tables and having great fun!! The next morning we did a tour of Wellington and visited Te Papa national museum before getting the ferry to Picton. We drove to Nelson and chilled that evening as we were up early the next day for our ocean kayaking around Abel Tasman which was fab!! Great fun and beautiful scenery.... also did a walk around the penninsula which was great! We got picked up for our skydive but it got cancelled due to the weather which was a bit of a let down - nevermind!! We travelled for most of the next day and went on some really cool walks and stuff and then went wine tasting in Kaikoura. Our lives changed here as Sally purchased Dora!! How much fun have we had with her! I'd forgotten how great playing catch was - lol!! Stayed in Christchurch that night and went to a restaurant with Sal, Em and Meg before meeting the others in a bar called Shooters and playing pool for most of the evening and finally ending up in a really cheesy bar called Boogie nights... The next morning i had a shock as Tyler came to join us (from Oz tour) which was lovely!! I had no idea!!!! We drove down to Flock Hill station, stopping off for a picnic in a beautiful location in the mountains. Flock Hill was amazing! A lot of the scenes from the film Narnia had been filmed in the area and we went for a walk and Sally and i sat on a bench chatting for ages just looking out at the breathtaking views! We saw sheepdogs at work and some other cool stuff too and had a fab lamb dinner and played games on the evening! The next day we travelled to Fox Glacier and i did a helicopter hike with Emily! It was stunning! A helicopter took us up higher on the glacier and then a guide walked us around it carving out steps and taking us though amazing ice caves and things! It was fantastic! We went for a meal on the evening and then for a walk in the woods to find glow worms which turned out to be soooo much fun as it was pitch back and then everyone started telling spooky stories! Obviously we went for a few bevvies after and in the morning we got up early and saw lake matheson which was just AMAZING!! Then we travelled to Queenstown - where more fun began!! The last couple of days have been crazy as i have arrived in Queenstown and done a shotover jet powered boat ride, 2 canyon swings a 15,000ft skydive and the infamour Nevis bungy all within 1.5 days!!! haha!!! Lovin it and still here to tell the tale!! lol!!....
Anyway being kicked out now as internet cafe is closing so will see you soon.... I'm fina and hop you are tooo....
We went to Milford Sound next which was AMAZING and went kayaking and swimming (which was freezing!). On the evening Sally, Matt and I stayed up on top deck for hours and hours lying looking at the starts and chatting! It was a highlight of my tour for sure as it was beautiful! The next day we left Milford and headed to Lake Ohau and saw some amazing waterfalls and lakes around the area.
I'm in Fiji now and running out of cresdit... flying home tonight so 24 hrs travelling to come - oh joy!!
See you soon
Love u all
