Was super lazy this morning. Weather got a bit cooler and cloudy. I finally got my butt in gear and headed down to the wharf and caught the little ferry over to Russell. It's about a 15 minute ferry ride and only costs $10 return. Russell isn't a very big place. It's the sight where a maori activist brought down the flag about times. There is another town on the island that was the first capital city of New Zealand.
I walked around and stopped for some lunch and ate down by the sea front with a flock of seagulls (hehe) watching my every move. One seagull wouldn't let any other birds come near me which was funny to watch. I fed him a few chips and walked around the town. I found Christ church which is the oldest church in New Zealand. Other then that, not much to see as most stores were closed as it's still on winter hours.
Caught the ferry back over and met up with Vera and you guessed it...another hot tub night! After hot tub we made dinner and then headed to the hostel bar for quiz night. While waiting for drinks we
met there 2 kiwi guys, well one was from South Africa but has been here for 11 years. So we joined their team. We weren't very good haha. The boys bought a couple of drinks and we had a good time.
But, of course when people start drinking bad things are bound to happen and the one Kiwi guy named Hedleigh was quite drunk and being a bit obnoxious and threw some ice at Vera which she didn't like and well a whole pint of beer ended p in Hedliegh's face. This is when I took my canadian neutral stance and did not get involved. Hedleigh really did take getting a pint of beer in the face quite well I have to admit.
After the quiz some karaoke started and Vera and I sang some S club 7 with 3 german girls. It was not so good haha. But the boys were all dancing to it which was hilarious. While we were just sitting around and drinking and visiting I noticed the hottest, most gorgeous guy I have ever seen in my life standing at the bar. Tall, dark and sexy and had like the nicest arms I
have ever seen.
Anyways, Vera went to hang out with this other guy so I was chatting with South Africa guy and Hedleigh and then hottest guy ever came over and we were all talking. South Africa guy went to try and dance with the german girls and Hedliegh went to go make an ass of himself some more haha. So I was left with hot guy. He's in the army here but is half samoan. He's a typical guy who hangs out with too many guys haha if you know what I mean. Anyways, not the nicest guy but very very pretty to look at.
So, more drama goes on between Hedliegh and Vera and then South Africa guy steps in and causes more problems and my hot guy goes and kicks out south africa guy and Vera slaps Hedliegh and it was just mad chaos. I just stayed out of it and stayed in my spot and hot guy came back and we chatted some more.
Anyways, on my way out of the bar to go to my room I got stuck talking to south african guy and then Hedliegh came out and then hot
guy so I never got to my room at that point. Long story short, as I was saying bye hot guy invites me back to his hotel room to get a "better night's sleep" hahahaha. Don't worry mom and dad...I didn't go, I went back to my dorm room and slept in my own bed.
All in all it was one crazy night!!
