Kia Ora Guys, We landed in Auckland back on the 25th March. After doing some research we decided the cheapest way for us to get around the country was to book a coach tour called 'Kiwi Experience', it saved us the hassle of driving costs and takes us to places we wouldn't otherwise have found. Plus it also includes plenty of free trips, which you definitely need as a traveller. Our north island journey includes the following: CAPE REINGA - This was on...

Bula!! The Fijian welcome/ hello that was shouted in our direction at every opportunity throughout our stay in this friendly country.

After Greyhound messed up our journey to Vegas, leaving us stuck in San Bernadino for 2.5hrs, we arrived 10.5hrs later!! The weather in Vegas made a welcome change for us as we finally got the chance to walk around in T-shirts even tho the week before we arrived the whole of Nevada had been hit by snow storms and high winds.
