Christchurch Monday 30th June After dropping the campervan off we had a look to see how much the Antarctic centre was for later in the week before catching the city flyer back into town. Once there we had a little look around and pick a few leaflets up from the i-site. We then found our way back to the hotel and started some washing and watched some movies on the huge flat screen TV. The hotel that we stayed in was the Hotel SO and it's SO cool, the rooms have...

Campervan South Island Part Two Saturday 21st June - Monday 30th June Wanaka - Queenstown - Te Anua We had a good look around Wanaka on Saturday 21st June your longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere but it's the shortest down here.

Once back on our way we pulled the LOTR book ...

Campervan North Island - Part Two Saturday 24th May - Thursday 5th June Waitomo - New Plymouth - Taupo After Recovering from the black water rafting the day before we packed up and drove to New Plymouth (named so because people from Plymouth in the UK moved there so being clever they named it the new one) on Saturday 24th May.
