Last weekend, I went with my favourite Canadian on a trip to Auckland. We had a fantastic 4night stay, which was full of bad kiwi accents (ours) and vodka, with a splash of adventure.
Heading in to Auckland
Every time you hear about people going to New Zealand, you hear about all of the adventure stuff they do - it is almost like a given now, if you go to New Zealand you have to do some crazy- whacked out - poop in your pants kind of activity! McKayla (Canadian friend) suggested bass jumping, but I am waay too chicken and scared of heights to do this, but I do like pushing my fears. Another friend of mine suggested Canyoning and Canyoning is what I went with.

My first Abseil
Pooping my pants!
Followed by a breakfast of wine and Indian food... Mckayla and I are food twins and we never knew it - we both hate Olives & Coriander!
Breakfast at 2pm :)

I must say I was also pleasantly surprised to see some friends I thought I had left back in Canada - Wendy's and Dennys. It is probably a good thing that these aren't in Australia, because if they were I am sure I would be 20kgs heavier!!
Love NZ.. would go back again and buy a Chilly Bin (kiwi word for esky, which made me giggle every time I heard it) :)
Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteI loveeee crazy adventure activities, nothing like the adrenaline rush! That would be the first things I would plan if I go to NZ!
