Hi there! So much ground covered since the last blog. We spend a lovely couple of days in Wellington, the first just going around Lower Hutt - where Alex's Ma lives - and the next actually in the centre of town. Went to the main museum and saw a massive squid! The biggest in the world. And the rest of the museum was pretty cool too. The town is lovely and lots of enticing shops which I am steering clear of as I know the consequences would be disasterous! We the...

Well I made it to New Zealand and amazingly without a hitch! Slept most of the flight over and woke up in time for all the food! We even arrived about half an hour early, which considering this meant it was 3.30am, meant I was even more suprised to see Alex there waiting for me! We ventured into town on the first afternoon and went up the sky tower since it gives amazing views of the city and helped to gain bearing of the place. I also couldnt keep mself out of ...

So much to fill in once again! I finished at the orphanage just before atempting to see Machu Picchu and really enjoyed my time there.

I warn you now that it is unlikely that you will believe that the following actually happened, I am having trouble believing it myself!Got up at 6am on the 31st March in order to get a minibus to Machu Picchu in time for the day it opened. It was going to be a 6 hour bus journey, followed by a 4 hour trek, getting us to Aguas Calientes for about 5.30/6ish. We met at the tour agency at 7am and had a FOUR HOUR wait for the tour guides to buy the tickets to Machu Pi...

Mum said that my last blog was too boring so I thought I would write about some more amusing things which have been going on: Massages: Six of us went to have massages, three girls in one room, three boys in the other. Good job we divided it by sex as the people doing the massages did not know what they were doing! The boys had their bums out and all of the girls had their boobs looked at. Football: Took all the kids to see a football match last weekend, whic...
