End of New Zealand
13.12.2006
Hi everyone, sorry haven't updated the blog for a while not relly had cahncelooking for a job and apartment in sydney
anyways the end of my trip in new zealand
from christchurch went back up to wellington and had another night out in some irish bar and had a really good night, met more new people and tarevlled on with them
next day went back to taupo and spent a few days there, had anothe couple of big nights out and went on a sailing trip around the lake which (giving you a bit of local knowledge) is actaully the biggest lake in new zealand and was created by a volcano eruption many years ago (sorry if i had already entioned that on one of my previous entries)
anyways went back up to auckland the next day via rotorua and spent the night there before going up to the far north bay of islands. the bay of islands looks kinda like greece and had a great time there, went out to see the dolphins which are brilliant to see and had a couple of quite nights there before having one more massive night in auckland partying until 6 in the morning which i felt the next day on my morning flight to fiji!
oh yeah i forgot to mention i went sandboarding down 80m sand dunes and drove along 90 mile beach on a coach (the beach is actually registered as a road and if you stop at any point you will sink cos its like quick sand!) getting off the beach was crazy, we had to take a run up so to speak from about 200m back and drive as quickly as possible and then basically ram into this ramp and hope that we got up, it was quite a bump but we made it just about!
