Last few pic's to go with blog below!

Rounding up NZ ready for the last chapter.

Hey guy's

Well this is the last time ill be posting on this from NZ and i know i wont be over this side of the world again in a long time.

Quite a lot has happened since the last time of writing and as every traveller knows every day is an adventure. Back in Wellington i met up with Jenny Whom i met at the Maori night and we watched the cricket Eng V Black caps which was really good fun and the whole place was taken over by the Barmy Army. They all travelled round in red double Decker buses hence the photo of me next to it. That night was a big night out with Jenny and Sarah (whom i was staying with in Well) dancing on tables the lot but it was girls having fun...........brilliant! Went around and saw some the last bits of Well i had not seen (like the famous boat shed in the pic and i like them as they add colour and retro to the beach front) and chilled with Sarah. Saw Dragon boat racing in the harbour, the school competition which is a great way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.

I have to say a massive THANK YOU to Sarah for putting me up and letting my brain settle, i.e not in hostels, sick of them now! My last night in Wellington was St Patricks day and in true fashion it was a blast, jigging, face paint, drinking, smiling, music and lots of drunk Men, mostly about 45! Pic of Irish (aka Sarah and here friends from the Irish club which seem to be every where in the world! (john and Mr California....private joke) Also THANK YOU to Natasha whom I'm staying with now just on a beautiful island 30min's off the coast of Auckland. (sky line pic)

It is breath taking the view from the house Natasha lives in, you can see Auck in the distance, Winery's, beaches and not to mention boats all over the place. Very relaxing. Walked to Cable Bay winery where she works and it high class and fine dinning but gorgeous! It Natasha's birthday today so she off with the Boyfriend which gives me time to sort lots of things out ready for the next bit of my travels. Yesterday we spent most of the time on the beach and then went to the best Cinema i have ever been to. Sofa's filled a room with the big screen and you could get really comfortable just like at home. It was just my sort of thing.

There will be a few more picture on the top of the views, Natasha and i also one form the cricket with Jenny and the Girls on the night out having fun.

Funny never thought i would say this but getting ready for being a home for a while and being in one place, there is a MASSIVE difference in being a traveller and working abroad. Not jumping the gun too much however, looking forward to the next bit and I'm going to Spanish school in Argentina! WOW! Also going to dance the Tango so hard i look like Elle McPherson's, when i get home;-)

Any empty space in you calender in June and Aug remember to leave a bit for me to catch up with you over a brew.

Anyway till the next time, miss you all love Karen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
