NEW ZEALAND!!!!!!





WAHEEYYYY what a reverse culture shock!!! In New Zealand EVERYONE understands us and the Queen is on the coins!!!! ha ha The people are also really really freindly!!!! First stop was Auckland which was a nice place, the suburb we were in was a bit posh but really cool. So the first day we went to the new zealand museum which was great and had lots of maori stuff and lots on the wars which seem to have forged both new zealand and oz. The next day we decided to hire a van...called scottie!!! yeh!!! so off we set to explore North Island, such a cool place where everywhere that you look looks like lord of the rings!!
First stop Waitamo caves where we saw some amazing caves and glow worms, next we headed to Taupo but because it was getting cold we decided to tailor our stops to where there were hot springs so for this night and the next we stayed near taupo and rotorua near hot springs, really great, it was cold outside but in the hot baths it was brilliant! We also had a mud bath! Which i can still smell on my towel now!!
