New Zealand travels

Well again its probably been too long since i last emailed cus now ive got to tell you all about a months travels. Cheers for those who are checking out the site and leaving messages hope you all like the photos.

Where to begin think i left it in Aucklnad and meeting up with lucas, fro there five of us hired some transport and went to the bay of islands right top of the north island, sanding boarding down 80m sand dunes, beuitiful views and of course excessive amounts of BBQs and meat eating.

Back in Aucklnad jumped onto the stray bus kind of like kiwi experience for all of you who knows it. Went to the corramandle and canoed to some wicked coves. Heading then to Raglan supposed to be wicked for surfing with a left hand break (Was in the film endless summer) obviously as i cannot surf i body boarded which was pretty cool to.

Rotarua in the middle of the north island not much to say smelt of eggs because of the geothermic stuff there only satyed one night then off to lake taupo. Taupo very cool wicked lake to swim in although as most of you know wasnt able to sky dive (weight restriction, rubbish), apparently not the best place to do it anyway so gonna try again in qweens town.

From there east coast road trip hired three cars bit of a mission trying to organise accomdation for ten poeple in peak season but we managed to blagg it. Wine tours and some good walks proceeded here finishing in the bay of plenty in a wicked hostel on the sea, hot tub and some wicked views and sunset there.

Headed back to taupo and back on the stray bus though tabgaririo nat park for the tongaririo crossing awesome day and walk agian wicked views but pretty tired at the of it. Those of you how havent heard of it it where mount down it from the lord of the rings! Ill put a picture up.

THen onto wellington for a week of carnage including the wellington international sevens wicked weekend not sure about the rugby dont think we watched much of it with all the entertainment, drinking and parties very cool. Everyone dressed up got into the wellington weekender newspaper ill try and find a suitable picture to put up. Some may have been less than tasteful.

So after the recovery period headed across to the south island where my present location is nelson at the top of the south island. Canoed around able tasman which amazing and definatly worth it anyone of you get a chance.

On to christchurch tommorow and meeting up with Mr Bagshaw for those who know the idiot.

So happy days enjoy the long email and those who carnt be arsed to read, im not gonna read it again, just look at the pictures they should be pretty cool.

Goodbye for now.
