So we both plucked up the courage and did a bungy jump!! We did The Kawarau Bridge which was the worlds first bungy jump site. We were both absolutely petrified. Caroline decided to jump tandem with our driver and I went it alone! It took us both 2 attempts, first time I absolutely crapped myself looked down and just kept saying 'I can't do it, I can't do it!!' which isn't the bets thing to say to gear yourself up to jump. Caroline was hilarious she was gett...

Wanaka was a very quaint town set around Lake Wanaka, beautiful mountainous scenary. We stayed in a lovely hostel which was more like a hotel, we had an ensuite with a bath which we were both excited about. So after a long soak in the bath and some proper pampering we headed out to a Thai restaurant for dinner. In the morning we went to Puzzle World which is this strange little tourist attraction with a maze and lots of illusional puzzles, hard to explain real...

We did our 8 hour glacier hike today - amazing! The scenary was stunning and you don't realise how long you are walking for. It was quite hard work at first but you soon get used to it. We were provided with some very fetching outfits and had to wear proper walking boots with crampons (spikes that stick into the ice). Walked through some amazing crevices and hiked up some pretty steep slopes - it was quite full on! Check out the pics!! Staying one more night...

We had a cool night last night, stayed in this hostel in the middle of nowhere, this guy called Les runs it and he is about 80 years old - but soooo funny!

We had a group photo with everyone from the bus, which was cool, then we all got very drunk! We are now at Franz ...

Hey all, not much to report but we thought we would touch base!! we are now in the South Island currently in Westport. We stopped off in Nelson on the way at a really nice hostel, more like a bar with rooms - really quaint. Alot has been closed the last few days because of Easter. Westport is quite a ghost town, but we managed to buy ourselves some easter eggs and we're planning an early night with our pj's on gorging on chocolate - nice! Hope you all have a...
