Hello everyone!!!

Well a lot of things happen since last time. I start this tour with stray. It is pretty cool. The idea is simple, you choose a itinerary with different stop and you can stay one or more night,and you have a guide and they offer you activites and take care of your accomodation. so ti is very good when you travel alone and you meet a lot of people in the same case as you.

I start in auckland. We went down to Haihe, beautiful small town with a very nice beach(see photos). then we went to Waitomo, famous for the cave. Next stop in rotorua where I decide to stay 2 nights. My travel mates went for the zorbing and then we went for a polynesian spa, very relaxing.then today a ot of poeple are doing a crazy walk for 6 hours in a huge mountains.The landscapes are beautiful.

I met a lot of nice poeple in this tour. i ma traveling with Karen, irish woman and setfi, German. We started in the same bus and decides to stayed together.They are very nice poeple.In the same bus i met antia, a crazy german girl and some other great poeple.Yesterday we started in a new bus because we stayed one more night in rotorua and the new poepel looks cool.

Oooo, i forget, between rotorua and this national park, yesterday we stoped and spend the night in Taupo!!It is the biggest lajke in the world!!It is amazing!!( soon some photos i promise!! )and there I did a Sky dive!!!(saut en parachute!!Yeeeeeeeeeeees)It was fucking crazy!!belive me!!we went to 12 000 feets highand the views were incredible!!I was very scared!I did plkane at all to do that but Stefi was doing it and convince me to do it!! It was scary and to be honest i dont think I will do it again!!jajajajajaj i jumed with an instructor!!

PS for my sister Agathe; tu te rappelels qd on etait petiest on disait qu on allait sauter en parachute quand on aurait 20 ans!!eT bien voila c est fait et j ai beaucoup penser a toi quand j ai saute!!Ca fait super peur!!je pense pas que tu aurais aime!! :)

As you can see I really enjoy this trip, great adventures, great people and awsome landscapes!!

Tomorrow I arrive in Wellington and i am going to stay until Wednesday. I am going to stay with Hayden, for the one who knows him. then i fly on Wednesday to Christchurch and Kristen come to pick me!!!! I am so excited to see her!!We stay few days there with her friends.

Next time I willm put my photos!

Thanks for all your messages! i am very glad to hear form you all!!

no USA but NZ !!!

milou — Sun, 15 Apr 2007 19:02:00 GMT

Hello everybody!!

Sorry for the delay...well for the one who does not know, i could not get to USA. It was a mess total.I arrived at the airport , ready to check in and the lady told me that my passport was not valid for the USA!! I was very upset. And of course I checked it before my trip and i understood that it was ok but I need a tourist visa.And apparently it depnds of the month of the issue, well anyway i contaced the Fench consultadt in Edinbughr to see if I could get a urgent temporary passport and it was not possible. So the steward from air New Zealand told me i could get a seat for the plan for Auckland the same day at 21h05. I had to run to london victoria station, get re issued my ticket and finally i managed to get in the plane. So i arrived in auckland on Wenesday 11 april at 9 am after 24 hours flight, stopping in Hong Kong 2 hours.

Anyway just to tell you that I am safe and in New Zealand. I spent 2 days in auckland, quiet nice city.Then on friday I wen to Paihia in the north , north of the north Island untill today.

There I met this amazing american woman in a boat trip.she was in Paihia for the week end. She lives for a while in Auckland for her compagny. she was goimg back to auckland today and she offers me to give me a free lift. It was very cool and we went to do some sandbording and to see the oldest tree in the rainforest on our way down. I will talk more about her next time.Her name is Brigitte.

Next time i will put some photos.And tomorrow I am doing a tour for the next 10 days. Here it is very commun for backpaker to do some bus tour.It is the cheaper way to travel and to meet people.

So I start to Auckland , Hahei, Hot Water Beach, Raglan, Waitomo Caves, Rotorua, Taupo lake, National Park and finishing in Wellington.

I will give you more details next time.

I hope you are all fine and that you dont forget me!!!

Please give the link of the poeple that I forget!! :)

Lot of love!!!!
