North Island, New Zealand

Whistle stop tour, one week in the North Island. From Wellington to Lake Taupo, Rotorua and Auckland. Sorry to have handed back the campervan it was just us and the £15 tent (4 pegs and no guide ropes) from here on in. Not as beautiful as the south island, but still had lots of fun skydiving 15,000ft and meeting friends in Auckland. Thanks  so much to Rachel and Phil for being our personal tour guides and having us to stay in your lovely home.

Sitting by the harbour at dusk surrounded by our ever growing bags and watching a dramatic sun setting we realised we didn't want to leave NZ.
