Hey! Sorry for the long gap in messages but we have been so busy since we arrived in NZ. As you can guess from the fact that I am writing from New Zealand we made it save and sound to New Zealand with only the loss of a day to worry about! We spent the first few days in Auckland, we all really loved the city. It is a gorgeous city with a massive harbour, sky scrapers and brilliant shops!

Hey! Last message from South America!! really cant believe our time here has gone so quick. We have had an amazing time, we have spent the last few days in Santiago which has been loads of fun.

The last place we to in A...

Feel very unlike myself! Despite being evily cold it is really beautiful down here. The city (which is actually a small town) is surrounded by mountains and is a port town so is really n...
