So as you know, we're near the end of our journey in NZ, although we still have near 3 weeks left! Not really sure on what options we have at the moment if we wanna change flights or hang around near a beach. We're sat in a campsite just outside of Auckland, here's how we got here! February 16: We left our campsite at around 8am to get to Hot Water Beach. It's just a beach really but has a cool side interest. For 2 hours either side of low tide, you can dig a h...

February 13: This morning we headed towards Rotorua, with a few stops along the way. The first of which sounded almost too impressive to be true. A geyser that erupts at 10.15am sharp called 'Lady Knox'. It was too impressive to be true.

4th February: We decided to stay in Wanaka another night cause the boys were desperate to play some Golfcross and they don't have many of them around. It's basically golf but the ball is shaped like a rugby ball and you have to try and get it in very small rugby/post net things. So in the morning we headed straight to Rippon Vineyard to have a game. It was only 9 holes but still managed to take 4 hours with 4 of us playing. As a seasoned pro, Matt won by 15 stro...

Hey everyone Yet another Blog, they are coming at you thick and fast since we have been in New Zealand! Hope you are enjoying them. So we left you last in Queenstown..... February 2nd 2009 Today we got ready to leave Queenstown, as much as we love this place we really have to leave before we spend anymore money. There is way too much stuff to do here - especially thrill seeking stuff like bunjy jumping, whitewater rafting and river rafting. Plus camping is so...
