We made it back to Auckland 50 minutes behind schedule so we rushed out through passport control to get our bags. Our bags took 30 minutes to come out so at that point we knew we weren’t going to make our next flight, but we tried anyway. We got through customs and headed out of the international terminal and over to domestic. We went up and asked about dropping our bags off, but like we thought, we were too late. We got checked in to the next available fligh...

It was a 12hr 50minute flight home so not a short one. Not long after we took off dinner was served - I was unable to eat as I was feeling very unwell. Not a lot of sleep was had on the flight. Navajo watched a few movies while I attempted to sleep. We had a bourbon and biscuit mid flight and then had a chat to the flight attendant about whether or not we’d made our connecting flight - his only suggestion was that it was going to be very touch and go. He also...

Day twenty five - Los Angeles: After hoping for a bit of a sleep in we were both wide awake talking at 5:30am after I accidentally woke navajo up - I was wide awake from 2:10am after waking up to her going to the loo, and there was no going back to sleep. I spent the movie watching suits and listening to music and then once Navajo was up we both had a bit of a yarn and watched some tv and lay in bed. We got up at 6:30am and headed down for buffet breakfast which...

No sleeping in for us this morning as we wanted to see as much of London as we could in a short time. We got up after not enough hours sleep, got ready quickly, said goodbye to Dani as she left and we followed her out the door not long after her. We made our way to Wandsworth station, and got our tickets for the train to Waterloo. The train only took about 20 minutes and we were at Waterloo station. Before we carried on though we stopped for a coffee and bit of b...

We tried to have one last sleep in but we were all awake pretty early again. Though, we didn’t get out of bed until about 11am when Greta came to say goodbye. Greta stayed for an hour chatting away and laughing and talking about all the good times, before she had to go. In the meantime we found a huge spider that Navajo and Cecilia were very scared of and I wasn’t a fan either, but Greta was in her zone trying to catch it - she was unsuccessful. Saying goodby...
