New Zealand - Sweet as bro

Kia Ora from New Zealand!It's so beautiful here...no, wait. That doesn't do it justice. It's amazing! It's so lush and green and the people are so friendly. So many rolling hills, bright green trees, sheep, cows, horses...more sheep, more cows. ha ha...yeah, lots of farm land. So much to see! I'm in the south island now and even though it's been raining most of the time it's still breathtaking everywhere you look.

I left Auckland on the 5th of February and have been traveling with The Kiwi Experience since. I have to admit I was a little weary about being stuck on the "PARTY BUS" but it's been awesome. We've had a few crazy nights but everyone has been so great. I've had fun getting to know everyone on my bus over the last 10day but tomorrow I'll have to say goodbye as they are all staying another night here in Franz Josef and I'm heading down to Wanaka, Queenstown, Milford Sound, and Christchurch. Our bus driver Rich, could very well be the highlight on most of the days. His knowledge and sense of humour is awesome. He always has us laughing...well, mostly AT him and sometimes with him. :)

It's hard to believe my time is coming to an end. 10 more sleeps and I'll be home. CRAZY. Really missing my family, friends and work. I've got such mixed feelings right now. Trying to take it all in every day. Even thinking about skydiving again. LOL!

Until next time...
