Last day in New Zealand today and we have $12 between us. We work out this is enough for 2 pot noodles and a jug of beer! I meet back up with my friend kelpie from Magaluf who is here looking for work and is just as poor as we are she tells us about the casino that does $5 free bets, why not? Gives us something to do and one of us must win something! 10 minutes later we are $40 up no thanks to Elliot who wanted to put it all back on red! And we go for burritos an...

Finally we are at our last destination in New Zealand! Queenstown! Such a cute little town which people mainly go to for skiing but we are there just a few weeks to early! Not that we could afford it anyway! We go into happy travels to use Internet and get some recommendations for trips, we end up getting a hellicopter ride up to one of the mountains which was amazing!

So we jumped straight in, the water was freezing even when wearing 2 wetsuits! And we played around with the dolphins for about an hour! We were told to spin round in circles and make noises th...

Pretty boring day being hungover and waiting for our ferry to the South Island where we have an awful shock! With our campervan we get reduced rates on the ferry which is the main reason we chose the company thinking the price would be $210 which is still extortionant for the stupid ferry anyway! But when we get there we are told that is the price for the car and it would be another $75 per person! I nearly had a heart attack! So after a long and disappointing fe...
