Stressed out in Auckland

We made it to our last destination in NZ, got some dinner and realised that we had approximately 48 hrs to get ourselves sorted for Country number 10! So after trying to get a good nights rest so that we could wake up early (well early-ish!) we headed out into the city center determined to get everything figured out. Unfortunately this did mean that we didnt have the chance to explore Auckland as much as we wanted to and it was too late to change the flights! So, after all the time we did spend in Auckland, the only picture we have, is of the view of the Auckland Sky Tower from our hostel room window!

We did however get to book ourselves on a tour for Fiji and one its islands, where the plan is to just do nothing except relax! We picked up some Fijian dollars, got a hostel booked for LA and San Francisco, finally caught up with the backlog of emails we had to send out, got my brother his birthday card, sent off some postcards and a huge bulk of paper work to home, and picked up a few books to read for the remining part of our travels! We also managed to find some time to chill out and enjoy Auckland City Nightlife, and had a few drinks in a pub where we met some locals and got involved in a few games of pool! Sweet Bro!

Even though we were stressed out with all the organising of the onward travelling, and we didnt get to see much of Auckland; we did have an amazing time just being here and we could probably memorise every shop on Queen St and High St as we spent so much of our time walking up and down every day!!! New Zealand has just been a fantastic place to visit and we really got to see a lot of the country, more than we ever ever ever imagined! This will definatley be a place that both of us would love to return to, and see the rest of the country that we just didnt have the time nor money to see while we were here!
