    Hello from New Zealand

    hey guys and galls

    just wanted to say hello from New Zealand.
    Im in Te Anua at the moment, but we allready visited Christchurch and Dunedin. In between we visited to other towns when we stopped for some groceries and stuff. Also went to the Toemari Boulders (or something like that, to many names i just cant remember), which were pretty cool to see. We saw some albetros flying around and we went to a yellow eyed pinguin reserve, also pretty cool.
    Anyways, im stopping again. Times is almost up and im gonna play some cards with my travel mates.
    Ill be back sooner or later

    yup, having a great time
    Taking lots of pics here, took about 250 today. But im on public computers on the campings here, so no software to edit. You all shall have to wait till may before i can post some pics..shame isnt it.
    And i thought i saw an otter, but it was a pinguin. Was totally confuzzled. But im still looking for the otters.
    Anyways, times up again. Talk to y'all later

    Don't listen to LP!! Stick with the penguins!

    NZ is such an awesome place...you're gonna have a very memorable trip. Lots of wildlife (you've already seen the albatross and penguins, which are pretty special) and beautiful scenery. But hey, no bungee jumping off of bridges, okay?

    the locals are very friendly, all of them
    And i didnt bungee off a bridge, i bungeed out of a pod, which was hanging between 2 cliffs at about 150 meters above the Nevis River. So it was a 134m jump, it was awesome.
    I got another week off when i get back from the trip, so i should have enough time to edit some pics. Allready got about 1200, so i will have my work cut out for me
    Anyways, im off again. Till the next post
