NEW ZEALAND

10 May

After many hours of travelling we arrived in Auckland, New Zealand 2 days later. It did not actually take us 2 days to travel, but because of the time difference we lost a day!

Auckland is a really lovely city. So different to the cities we have just been to in South America. It was really nice to be able to relax a little in a big city, and not having to check your bag every 5 minutes. It is a really beautiful city, but I have to say it is beautiful in the very modern way. One of the main attractions is the huge Sky Tower, located in the middle of the city. The Sky Tower allowed us to look over the whole of the city. It is amazing how high up you get, however the massive building makes you feel safe (even when it is swaying with the wind) so even me, who isĀ  a “little” afraid of heights, enjoyed it very much.
