(DAY 8) Kia Ora! After a late night trying to catch up on the blog we headed straight back to Global Gossip this morning as, thanks to Off Exploring, our site has been uploading the albums incorrectly. After a couple of hours of trying to right the wrongs, we decided to call it a day and head up to the much talked about Skyline Gondola. When we were buying our tickets we were given the option of going on the Luge - a three wheeled go cart on a concrete track,...

(DAY 7) Kia Ora! Once again we were greeted from sleep by the sound of rain! We headed straight to Reception so Kie could book his bungy. Upon arrival we were told they had spaces available for today which was quite a surprise! Naturally Kie booked up straight away and Sophie settled for a spectator spot as she had no intention of hanging upside down! We quickly got showered and dressed before heading into town where Kie checked in for his jump. Before long w...

(DAY 6) Kia Ora!

The drive in the rain lived up to the expectations we'd been given as we were faced by multiple surging waterfalls with every corner we turned. When we arrived at Milford Sou...

(DAY 5) Kia Ora! Kie woke up early to speak to his Mum while Sophie snoozed and got the campervan ready for the day's journey. Once 'The Beast' was organised, Sophie went for a shower and waited for Kie to get his bum into gear! We set off at about half 9 and made our way to Pak'n'Save to get stocked up on food and petrol. It took approximately three hours to get from Dunedin to Te Anau and the journey was more enjoyable than the last because the scenery was ...

(DAY 4) Kia Ora! We woke up in Dunedin and the weather was really cold and miserable. We watched a film while having brunch in the campervan. We decided to head into the city centre and onto the railway station we'd heard so much about. Upon arrival Kie disappeared into the Sports Museum which is housed inside the railway station while Sophie meandered around the gift shop. After about half an hour we decided to head back to the Holiday Park where we passed B...
