Its been far far too long since I last wrote anything so im going to try and remember everything and ill split it into sections of what we have done and where weve been....
Franz Joseph
Franz Joseph is a big off glacier that we visited. We were going to do the walk up on the first day but it was raining loads so we made a group decision to sleep in late and then spend the day in thermal spas relaxing! best decision ever. Me and Tom also almost won a drinking competition in the evening but some pro turned up at the end that had won 5 times before and beat our score by 1 second! I know our parents would be proud.......
West Coast
We headed up the east coast and stopped off for a couple of nights on the way. Went to a glow worm cave and went to a few beaches.
Able Tasmin Forest
In the Able tasmin we hired two double kayaks and filled them full with tents and food and stuff and then kayakes around the coast of the able tasmin for two days which was amazing! we put our tents up on a random remote beach that we found for the night!
Jim and Marys Farm
At Jim and Marys we went round the HUGE farm over the hills which was good fun and looked around the area. Spent alot of time chatting to mary and playing football in the garden,
Kaiiiiikooorrraaaa
Not sure how to spell it but we went out whale watching there which was quality and then on the way back in the boat about 200 dolphins surrounded the boat and did tricks for us! very cool!
Winerys!
At about 10.30 in the morning we headed off around the marlbrough wine region to test out all of the local wines! apparently they are famous for their wines so we had to see for ourselves what they were like! By the end we were pretty much experts in white wines! and a little bit merry....
Night Ferry
Took the night ferry over to the north island and watched slumdog millionaire on the ferry to keep me awake and got into wellington at about 2 in the morning.
Tongariro Crossing
Went up to tongariro and did a 20km walk that is meant to be very pretty - but we picked the day where it was raining, covered in cloud and at the top there was 100 mph winds which meant you couldnt really walk very easily!
Rotarua
spent the day in the place that smells like gone off egg. there is steam coming off everywhere which is kind of crazy!
Somewhere up North
were somewhere near the top of the north island and we meet up with megan and makaela in a few days time which should be good fun!
Hope all is well,
Will x
