went on a mid night walk on sunday night at waitomo, also went cave diving which was nuts, climbing up waterfalls and abseiling through rocks which got very very narrow and then had to swim and push yourself through all sorts of small spaces - it was quality

Kiw Experience

Kia Ora! (greetings)

The kiwi bus is quality, i've already done sea kayaking and going to a maori hangi tonight where they're gonna do the haka and stuff!

first night was stuck in a dorm with germans and a couple, auckland generally has nothing there but the first day of the kiwi bus was great, sat down feeling nevous and this stunning dutch girl came and sat next to me - result, all the poeple are really friendly on my tour and up for getting drunk so evrythings all gravy

went to see where they filmed lord of the rings this morning, had a tiki tour through an old gold mine earlier going over rope bridges and stuff!
