Hay Everybody!
Well we got to Auckland on Wednesday & it is cold!!!!!!!!!!! Lots of wind so even when its sunny its still freezing!!!
Never mind the Hostel is really nice, very clean and in a really nice postion, out of the main drag of Auckland, but a little treck into town.
We have not really explored much so far as it rained lots on thursday & we only went to the local supermarket for food. In the evening we met with Zac's friends from ipswich for a drink & are planning to meet up again when they get back into Auckland (they have gone on a tour until friday). Friday we spent time in the city centre exploring the shops & today we wondered into Mt Eden village, which was lovely. Tommorow we are planning to climb up to the summit of Mt Eden as its the largest volcano in Auckland & apparently has good views over the city ( it looked a bit to much to do today as we are both quite tired, we are blamming the cold weather as we've been in bed by 11pm most nights!!!!!!).
Any way will keep you all posted on our activities,
Take care love Becky XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jealous Again
There is a place that has these natural hotsprings where you can go swimming its called wie weira and its only a bus ride from aukland, trust me its great. I'm all jealous again because it truly is one of the most beautiful countries in the whole world. If you think Aukland is windy wait till you get to Wellington the locals have called it the windy city! Whilst you travel on coaches and stuff you'll see a lot of the scenary that was in the LOTR, and wait till you get to Queens town and Christchurch! oh this is so not fair i'm getting all excited and i'm not even there, damn my lack of adventure! well you two have lots of fun, maddy
