Auckland, New Zealand

Arrived in New Zealand!

Took public bus from the airport and was quite surpised to find the bus driver asking me where I wanted to go, so he droped me off right outside the hostel front door! Hostel is huge, has bar and a cafe (with an all you can eat continental breakfast for $5!). Just wandered around the harbour the first afternoon looking at all the huge fancy yachts.

Took a free tour yesterday of North Head and walked over the harbour bridge (looks like mini version of the sydney one), had to wear a harness which seemed a bit dramatic for what it was, good views of the city though. Also went nice little beachy place called Devonport.

Today is the first proper rainy day since leaving home, still warm though. Just wandered around Auckland and went up the sky tower.

Tomorrow i'm going to travel to a region called Northland and the Bay of Island for a few days. Sound like a nice place but I think the weather is going to be dodgy.
