Where was I last?

Ok, I think the last time I posted I was on the Cook Straits contemplating throwing up.

After 3 hours we ,made iot to Wellington where we went straight to our hotle.  We had to stop the bus in the middle of a busy road, unpack it then dodge traffic!  We had a quiet night, I had Contiki Belly which is never fun whern you are eatiung cheesy food!  The next day I choose to do nothing, so I went to the local museum, which was free and amazing.  I then went shopping for our C dress up party the next night.  Guess what mum, I went into Tempt and Cotton On and bought nothing :O  Dinner was free choice and then we went to a Birds of Tokyo concert (Aussie band)

The next day was an early start to Taupo.  I was dropped off and a jet-boating on the Wakato river with some friends, then we went helicoptering over it.  After that I went for my 4th bungy, the same bungy Gemma did when she came over to NZ.  It was a little scary, but also quite fun.  Then we went out to our river cruise/dress up party and that's when this stupid Contiki Cough kicked in.  When I cough, it feels like my small intestine is trying to escape!  ASnyway, we had to dress up as somethign starting tiwh C- I went as Cyndi Lauper!  Our Tour Manager also got Contiki Cough and had to disembarked 20 minutes before us.

Ok so then after Taupo we cruised to Rotorua, or RotoVegas, which is funny cos there is no nightlife here.  Everyone went Zorbing first, I missed out cos they put water in with you and I didn't want to risk making my cold worse :(  Then we got dropped into town where I got to meet Phil's mum...and dad!!!  Gaynor didn't tell me that part cos she knew I woudl freak out.  Maurice bought me lunch then took me souvenir shopping.  I missed the bus, so they drove me around town before dropping me off at the hotel.   Then I went and checked out the Thermal Village which was pretty cool.  Then back to the hotel to get ready for a traditional hangi dinner and performance - which was awesome.  We got to get upo and practice poi (girls) and haka (boys).

Then and early night and a sleep in.  We are off to Waitomo today where we are going black water rafting to check out glowworms.  I can't remember what else I have on. 

But I thought I'd catch you all up.  I'm having a blast, besides being high most of the time, haah.  See you soon xxx
