Wednesday 5th April, Day 131: We awoke in the morning feeling quite groggy and not as raring to go as we should have been. It turned out, that the bed which we had pulled out to sleep on last night, was in fact to be used for children only, and so that would explain why the panels felt like they were going to snap each time we turned over in our sleep! Anyway, after having a shower, we wandered over to the communal kitchen to make our breakfast and were pleasantly surprised by the huge free f...

The Overlander train to Wellington is not what I was expecting , the narrow track gauge makes for a rocky ride, and this is very hilly countryside. It is green and beautiful though (think the Shire in Lord of the Rings). This is however the milk run, it stops very often to pick up more passengers; even when moving it goes very slow. After great train trips in China I was expecting a direct route and I am sure that all these stops were not mentioned in the brochures that I read when planning t...

Today we will be taking both a ferry and a train, a long day ahead. Our hotel (the Copthorne Plimmer Towers) has a strange set up with a reception area on the same level as the parkade instead of at ground level. Our shuttle is late picking us up which causes us a lot of stress, we cannot miss the ferry or we will miss our train. The ferry terminal is further away then we expected and we are relieved to finally arrive and find out that our bags are going to go directly to the train terminal i...

Greetings! (jak zwykle po polsku na dole strony) We are now in Wellington. :) There is an interview prospect for me early next week, so we've come a bit early to check things out. We're going to spend a week here to explore and see if we like the area enough to live here instead of Auckland (we loved Auckland). Auckland is known by kiwis as being too busy etc, but actually it's also a great location for doing everything. If you drive just a short while out of the city centre, you can find you...

... endemic species of plants and animals. All in all a great way to spend a rainy day. After about five hours our minds were saturated and it was almost a relief to hear the closing announcements over the speakers. Like any good museum, there's just too much to see in one day, good thing we'll be back up this way in a few months. A quick snack then on to set up camp, we had a early boarding time and wanted to be rested and ready, we've been excited ...

... of our meals. There are big lounging areas, a tv/games/reading room and a host of useful information. We spent our first day getting our bearings and having a wander about the city. This is the first place since we've come to NZ that's had that big city feeling to it. It has that intensity that the other cities don't have but it also has the refined and cultured side to it seen in the many museums, galleries and sculptures dotted about ...

... papier machet and pantomime cows.. They seemed obsessed with them! After that they broke with tradition (not) and had - FIREWORKS - again. As I've said though - they do do them well! In between all of this there was more tennis and cricket. Plus they forecast a heat wave for the rest of the week.. 40+ until Saturday! Stop Press:- I was contemplating going to see Andy Murray in the stadium but it seems he hasn't made it to the next round..... Ah well.... Tuesday 27th January Melbourne ...

... and cocktails are served in teacups! We are saving that for Emma's birthday but are already really excited! I had my first game of frisbee in a year, but I wasn't as rusty as I thought I would be- although my muscles are still aching three days on (more duck-like walking without steps). All of the frisbee crowd are super friendly and I think after a month of playing I will have a few friends here. Lally is trying to set me up with ...
