Ok, I'm here in a hostel called Bay Adventurer and I have two days before school starts. We left Auckland 2 days ago and have made it to the Bay of Islands. It's awesome. The hills are sooo stickin' green it's unreal. Then these jungles pop up out of nowhere and you think you're in Jurassic Park 4! Plenty of pictures and video have been taken, but I can't upload on the hostel computer. We're heading up to the tip tomorrow (Saturday). I think it's called Cape Anne. There should be some sweet-as (a New Zealand term for "cool") sights. I went explorering a bunch on beaches and got out to these rock islands. It looked like a movie, holes carved out by pounding waves and pirates raiding the closest harbor pub. (I made up the part about pirates....)
I went diving today, Ryan it's just like home, vis was real bad today and not too much fish... It was nice to finally be in the water though. It was my first dive, but definetly not my last. I also saw the oldest church in NZ. It's in Russell and has been well kept. I've been walking so much lately. My legs look like Lance Armstrongs. My apartment is located on the top of a hill (more like mountain) and everything else (supermarkets, stores for windowshopping, and restauraunts/pubs) are at the bottom. Jeremy tell mom and dad we should road trip around both islands when you guys come over, I think that's the best way to experience NZ. You meet people from all over the world at these hostels and most of them are nice places to stay. You also see everything NZ has to offer.
I got 1 minute left on the machine. Miss most of you guys and I'll continue writing to say how awesome it is here. Peace out!
