Alloha. So, we arrived in Auckland yesterday at midnight, after a taxi into town and wandering around to find hostels with 24hr reception we got to sleep at about 3am. The flight from Cairns was pretty awesome, i asked to be sat on the side of the plane with views over the barrier reef and got cracking views, it is huge.
But anyway, New Zealand. We were hoping to rent a campervan today and start our tourn of the north island, but it seems march is still classed as high season, so they are very expensive. Because of this we have decided to wait until april to get a camper as prices drop dramatically. So for today and tomorrow we rented a car and are doing a quick tour of the northenmost tip of the north island, returning to auckland on tuesday and hopping on a coach tour to take us - via many stops - down to christchurch. First impressions of NZ, its very hilly, the coastline we have been hugging today is mainly rocky, but tomorrow we are going to the northernmost tip of NZ and heading back via some beaches. Hopefully doing some dune surfing or standard surfing. blog soon.
