Well guys, this is it. My adventure has come to an end ad I'm sat nursing a poorly head in Auckland (we had a few farewell bottles of wine last night!). I have my airport transfer booked and my ticket is ready. There's no going back now - I am homeward bound!! We arrived in the big city yesterday and returned the Spaceman back to his owners. It was so sad dropping him off, we felt awful. I think it almost compares to the feeling when you leave a child on their f...

Hi everyone! As you probably know, I'm in New Zealand! In my 3rd week here now and I love it - despite the cold (and rain today!) Just thought I'd give you a quick update on where we've been and what I've done. We arrived in a VERY cold Christchurch on Tues 30th June and picked up our spaceship camper van. They all have a name and ours is called 'Spaceman' - nice and easy compared to some of the Maouri names some of them have. We didn't have a great deal of tim...

We broke ...

We met some really fun people there - namely the guys from our dorm. We had such a laugh with them and they even treated us to a BBQ by the beach for dinner on our last night. It was the first time I was actually sad to leave a place since we got here. But goodbye we had to say as we ...

G'day folks My word, where to begin! We seem to have done a fair bit since arriving in Cairns 2 and a half weeks ago! I'll start where I left you, in Cairns waiting to do our Cape Tribulation overnight trip. We went on a mini bus up the east coast, north of Cairns towards Cape Tribulation which is where beautifull rainforrest meets the beach, quite a unique sight to behold we were told. Named by Captain Cook as... well, quite a few things went wrong for him a...
