Kia ora (hello in maori) from auckland

well we finally made it to auckland...where we go our seperat ways, its a little sad. even though the trip where was rushed and stressful, i guess we did get to see a lot and do a lot together and i'll always remember it. now we just need to see the car by sunday and everything will be great. we are thinking of going down to the airport with a sign, getting travellers just when they get to here with a great deal, something hard to turn down. we'll see
so monday i think i'm going to hop on a bus, destination still unknown. i kind of want to find a nice place to relax for a couple days, somewhere with a good night life but fun things to do during the days.....like christchurch!!! too bad i'd cost way to much to get there and back since my flight if from auckland, i just need to do a couple week tour of the north island. well i don't have much time just wanted to give an update, i know its been a while. not even sure where i was last time i updated...think it was wanaka, so next was arrowtown near queens town, north up the west coast of the south island stopping in franz josef, saw the glacier, murchison, cruized though the Marlborough wine region tasted at a couple places, hopped the ferry in picton for the north island, stayed in wellington for the night, shot up hwy 1 to lake taupo for the night, further north to mt maunganui (great place, wanna go back) and up to the coramondel peninsula last night and auckland today!!! i think that was it... fwwwww that a whilwind...can't wait to travel a little slower. oh and i'm planning on making some posts when i get home to reflect my actual trip...cheating i know, i should post as i go along but its too hard, too expensive and i'm too busy, i'm keeping a paper journal though so i'll basically post that with pics and links and stuff...
anyways gotta go, take care all and miss ya!!! email me if you get a chance!!!!
