New Zealand

Helloooo,

I am in Christchurch, New Zealand! Yeah!! When we were flying into the airport you could see all the hills and mountains, and it looks so cool! The land was EXACTLY like England, all patchwork fields, it was as if we were landing in Kent, but with bigger hills. Although, it is super sunny here, and there is a nice breeze, so its perfect weather really! Christchurch is pretty weird, its like a bit of a rubbish town, its got everything you need, but just seems all old. But i am very much looking forward to getting out into the country and seeing all the mountains and lakes and glaciers and hills and Kiwi birdies. So tomorrow will be exciting! Today it is Sunday, and nothing is open, which sucks a bit, i found an old cafe and ate this weird savoury muffin thing, because i haven't eaten since yesterday lunch. Then i walked round the corner and found some much better looking restaurants and cafes. Damn. I should have bothered to look a bit harder. Christchurch is supposedly the 2nd biggest city in New Zealand, and it doesn't seem much bigger than Pembury. But maybe i just haven't found the rest of it yet.

I wasn't allowed to enter NZ without buying a return ticket (i was just going to book it while i was here) So i ended up having to buy one in the airport, so i will be going back up to Airlie on the 3rd of April. wooo.

I left some awesome girls in Sydney, Becca, Harriet and Jacky who i hung out with the whole time i was there, so i will miss them. Plus i met up with Amy and Emma who sailed with me on my first week, they both live in Sydney, and we spent the whole of yesterday drinking in the sun at the Opera Bar, underneath the opera house. Which was brilliant.

I have no idea what to do tonight in this strange city! But hopefully i will find something terribly exciting to do! woooo
