Te Puke ---> Rotorua ---> Taupo ---> Turangi ---> National Park ---> Hamilton ---> Castlerock ---> Waitomo Caves

Cool, im finally on the go again, was travelling with Helen and John and we did Sky diving and Skiing, but right now im travelling on my own as everyone has different travel plans and routes...they have more time in NZ and hence they can take their time and stay on longer in any places they like...

Right now im at Waitomo Caves where im waiting to do Black water rafting and explore the glowworm caves...they are gonna upgrade me to do the abseilling FOC which is worth $165 when ive only paid $90 for the innitial black water rafting trip...reason? being cute is an advantage..haha....but it is actually because of some mishandling of my bookings....

there's no cd rom here hence i cant upload my skiing trip photos as well as the sky diving ones...no words can describe my sky-diving experience....it is...as i said...indescribable...

it was all good fun...jumping off the plane and free falling and parachuting...i can only ask you guys to try it yourself, see if you could put them in words...

The skiing trip was great too, i discovered that i have a natural talent of skiing...it was my first experience and i was skiing down the slopes in no time at all! of course there were some bumps and falls....but no pain, no gain, right?

Ive spent quite some money for the past few days...with some unfortunate events adding toll to wasting more money...yeah...the car couldnt start one morning when we were suppose to do snow boarding...and then i got a speeding ticket for travelling at 68k/h...unbelievable...

now let's see my expenditure for three days...excluding petrol which is NZD $1.70 per litre...and food...

Sky-Diving : $150
Skiing : $80
Speeding ticket: $120
Repairing car: $150
Accommodation for three days: $60
Total: NZD $560

im currently paying $26 a night at the hostel here in Waitomo...really needa find a place to settle down soon...

the plan now is to go back to National park where i left my hand phone charger there and back to Tauranga where i left my camera battery charger...im getting more absent minded as days go by...it must be all the travelling...

i need a job to get some money to purchase my air ticket to Australia...

wish me luck...

more photos soon...
