Hi Everyone, Well we have been very busy, after the skydive we made our way to Naiper where we spent the night, we had a look around at the 1930's styled buildings and walked along the seafront. We left quite early in the morning because we had to get over to the other side of the island, next we drove through National Park (where Lord of the Rings was filmed) the scenery was beautiful and mountians were a bit spooky.

We went and had some brekkie and got shouted at by a drunk, good first impression! and then we w...

Hi, We have been very busy the last couple of weeks and haven't had a chance to update the blog.
