Trip to Dunedin

From Napier we went to Hasting, we didn’t do much here, just went to see ‘Die Hard 4.0’. It was nice to sit down for a moment and do nothing! The next day we drove to the capital of NZ, namely Wellington. We went up with the cable car to the botanic gardens and then we walked back down through these gardens! The old and new parliament buildings were built on the foot of this hill.

After the Hangi Mulligan and me drank a bottle of wine, Koops didn’t say or do anything, because he fell asleep the second he hit the bed. The room we were in was great though, n the morning we even got a free breakfast. This was a lot better then the sandwiches we had the day before on our way back from the hut!

After breakfast Peter and me went to the Rotorua Museum, we had a tourguide named ‘Murray Parkinson’, he had really nice stories and was very interesting to listen to! He also gave us some insight in the Maori people, which was great!

First of all, sorry for the abrubt ending last time, but my time was coming to an end. Like it is more often the case when I'm traveling here. We are a bit too busy to make time for things like the internet. But I will continue where I ended last time! After the terrible thunderstorm when we were in the thunderstorm we went back to Auckland to get some sleep. Read More...

First 3 days in New Zealand

3 pictures added August 14th!

In the plane I didn’t sleep at all, so I only had 4 hours of sleep in like 2 days. Therefore I was kind of broken when I arrived in NZ. Peter and Paul Mulligan (Peter’s Irish roommate) picked me up at the airport and then we first drove to Helmsville and then to North Head. It looked nice on the map, but actually there was nothing, just a filthy beach! That evening we went to the cinema, to see the Simpsons (the movie), this was hilarious, although I missed a couple of minutes because I was sleeping! Read More...

I just wrote a very long story about my stay in Tokyo, Japan, but when I wanted post that story I was logged out! Therefore a very brief story and maybe later I will write a long story again! Read More...
