Caught my last ever big green kiwi bus from Rotorua to Auckland. Stopped off at 'Hobbiton' on the way. I've never seen Lord of the Rings so this pretty much went over my head.

Arrived into Auckland early afternoon and I was on a mission to get everything sorted before Fiji. Pounded around the shops for some New Zealand tat, sun tan lotion and most importantly a vaccum pack for my warm clothes. Spent the rest of the afternoon trying to cram my clothes into my bag!

Met up with some others from the bus and went for one last drink in New Zealand. Auckland is the first city here that I would qualify as a city, potential relocation location????

In the morning arranged a taxi with 2 other girls who are catching my flight to Fiji and made our way to the airport. Bottle of duty free purchased and Fiji here I come....
