Hello all. Thought it best we update you all on what we've been up to recently! We're now in LA after spending 4 weeks having an amazing time in New Zealand. I'm not going to bore you by writing about everything we did but let the pictures do most of the talking this time. We started off in Christchurch and booked ourselves onto the Kiwi Experience bus much like the one we did in Aus. This time though we were with pretty much the same people on each bus as we toured the country and luckily had a really good bus with loads of fun people aboard. We set off from Christchurch and headed north to start our anti-clockwise loop of the south island which is an incredible place on the whole. Really beautiful and so much stuff to see and do. We did everything from jumping out of planes (Joey) and swinging into canyons (Me) to luging down hills and zorbing down them as well! After spending 3 weeks touring the south island we headed north to take a look at the north island. This was a lot quieter but still managed to have a great time. One of the
nights in the north we spent an evening with a traditional Maori tribe where they performed dances and taught us all about their history which was really incredible. It ended with a traditional Maori feast which was pretty special as well! After a week in the north island we flew out from Aukland to LA which is where we're currently staying. The plans are to take a bit of a Californian road trip over the next few weeks with Moo, Smithy and Charlie who are coming out to meet us on Wednesday. We'll be hitting San Diego, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Yosemite National Park and then San Francisco before returning to LA. We'll probably try to update the blog again after all of that.
Hope all is well where you are. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
