Sorry I haven’t updated the blog for a couple of days, but having so much on and there only one computer in the hostel I didn’t find time! We are back in Christchurch now, the city that always sleeps! After a 7 hour bus Journey. we are now accustomed to these long bus journeys so they don’t bother as much now! On Wednesday we woke up all feeling like a bag of shit after partying hard for St Patrick’s day, managing to polish of a bottle of Duty free vodka before we went out! We had to be at the bus [View Full Entry]

Sorry for no update yesterday but, didn't get back until late! The original sky Dive that we booked was cancelled at the last minute due to a fault with the plane. Luckily we managed to swap to a different company for later in the afternoon!

We took off and started the climb to 15,000ft this is the highest you are allowed to [View Full Entry]

Today was Bungee jump day! We had to get up early for our first jump about 15 minute drive away On the Kawraui bridge! This was the first commercial bungee jump in the world and stands at 43 tall! Dan went first in just superman pants followed by dave who enterd the water at the bottom of his jump! Next It was my time, and to be honest i was crapping myself! They get you all strapped up and get you to shuffle over to the ledge. They say a few tips ask you to look at the camer and then [View Full Entry]

We arrived In Christchurch pretty late and got a shuttle bus into the "City" In england this would be called no more than a large town. The Hostel that we had paid a deposit on, once we got there, no one was up as it was about 2am, so we had to [View Full Entry]

Arrived in Sydney today after a delayed flight from Bangkok. We Left jack for his flight back to the Uk, but with all the snow he might not be back for a while! We took the Ferry To Phi phi after a reasonable nights kip in the smelly hotel located in Phuket Town. The Ferry was rammed and we where forced to sit outside with the bags, but met a sweedish guy on there who I think drank more beer than water on his Holliday. On arrival we where bombarded with touts for hotels, but eventually managed to find a bungalow [View Full Entry]

Thankfully I have found a Computer to escape the Hotel which we sadly booked into, which we have named battersby dogs home, more about this in the next blog though!
