Hi everyone thought I hadn't written an email for a while and as I happen to have a free afternoon this would be the perfect opportunity. Well last time I wrote I was in Oz and on my way to NZ. New Zealand is an amazing country the people are so friendly and a little crazy. There are so many things to do and I've tried so far to do them all. Ok so to start with we landed in Auckland in the north Island and headed up to the top of the North Island and the bay of I...

I think if the weather had been better for us we may have liked it more but two days or rain did not make me fall in love with this place,. we ended up spending most of our two days shopping wh...

Hi not sure who can see this but thought I'd update it anyway. We are in Brisbane today quickly stopping off on our way up the east coast. So far we have done Sydney which was amazing. We visited all the beaches: Bondi (where the waves were vicious and the sea was freezing), Coogee(where we stopped at a friensd house and had a bbq and saw sienna miller) and Manly where we had to get the ferry from Sydney harbour and when arrived we just plonked ourselves right on...
