Fly by post!

Hello from New Zealand!

I've only got 6 minutes left of internet time, so I'll make this quick:

  • New Zealand is beautiful
  • It's a lot more rural than I expected
  • Driving on the left side isn't too hard
  • We had a couple of lame hikes
  • We got to see glowworms, bubbling pools and bubbling mud (very cool)
  • It's a lot like the U.S.
  • Everything closes obscenely early
  • The hostels/camping have been going well
  • Last night we stayed at an awesome hostel with a beautiful garden, including chickens and quails
  • Tonight we are at a hostel in Wellington which is not as nice, more expensive, and totally packed
  • We have gotten to see lots of cows and sheep (more sheep than cows)

Overall, we're having a great time so far! Tomorrow we head to the south island a day early, due to some bad planning on my part. Oh well, wineries and kayaking here we come!
