Went around Lake Wakatipu and Queenstown

Our guide on the cruise around the Lake was hilarious. His jokes weren’t very good, but it was the way he laughed at them himself with a very dirty laugh. When he was taking pictures for the ladies it was like a model shoot, you are looking good darling that is excellentMeer informatie

In the morning I went to Arrowtown. Arrowtown is an old gold rush town,. The Main Street is in the same style it was a hundred years ago, similar to a Wild West town. Arrowtown was also as an original Chinese settlement

In the afternoon I went on the skyline gondola and went to see another Hakka showMeer informatie

Everything went to plan, back in Auckland

Another great place to stay, I have been so lucky on my hotels and apartments. Popped out and got something to eat - Chinese. The food was amazing, the service was terrible. The waiter was on his laptop in the corner and if anyone wanted a drink he just told them to help themselves out of the fridges, he barely managed to take the food from the kitchen. The chef was screaming at him to take the food to the tables

Two more full days left, already sorted what I am going to do. Tomorrow I am going to coromandel and the the final day to Waiheke IslandMeer informatie

Another full day going to the coromandel Peninsula

First stop of the day was a climb up mount Paku, then a walk to cathedral cove

And finally a visit to the hot water beach, preparing your own hot water spa by digging a hole in the beach. The water was really hot. This was an excellent end to the day before driving back to AucklandMeer informatie

Went to Waiheke on the ferry from central Auckland. The island as loads of beaches and little villages

I visited Oneroa, little Oneroa, surfdale and Blackpool beach. Had some great fish and chips at the seaside, what more could you want

It was a nice easy day and a great way to end the New Zealand journeyMeer informatie

Goodbye Aotearoa (the land of the long white cloud)

Headed back home, bags got searched in Auckland Airport. Even with the unpacking of my bag (hand luggage), it still only took me 10-15 minutes to get through security

First flight from Auckland to Melbourne was diverted to Sydney due to weather conditions. I eventually arrived in Melbourne 4 hours late, which meant I missed my flight to Abu Dhabi. All the flights were re-arranged to Emirates, but they was not until the morning. Slept in the transfer area. I did get offered an hotel, but it was pointless as the hotel was half an hour away and check in started in around 3 hours after I landed

Sorted out my boarding pass and luggage 30 minutes before takeoff, hopefully I should be now back on schedule, arrived back home at around 10pm Friday - cream crackeredMeer informatie
