Bungy Taupo-Auckland



OK so now i am in Auckland and tomorrow at 3pm i fly to Singapore for the night before continuing on to Trivandrum in southern India. All set for Singapore, booked into a hotel stopover package, i know not very traveller like but its a good deal and no hassle which is sweet when i have 24 hours to be exact in the town. On the morning of driving to Auckland, we stopped to do the Bungy which was sweet, a lot different than skydiving that's for sure, you are so much closer to your surroundings and then you get dunked in the water. I wish that i had looked more down when i was dropping though because i couldn't tell where i was for the most part until i hit the water. oh well next time. We also stopped to pick up some hubcaps as 2 had been lost along the journey and what do ya know, they have the exact same ones in the store, the cheapest you can get. what a surprise. Got into Auckland, found a place to stay and then headed out for kebabs and the Heineken Open, my first tennis tournament experience. Now it wasn't packed with stars but the 7 and 9th world ranked players were there and we were able to watch the 7th ranked player Robredo? woop some 57th ranked players butt. so that was neat. The next day we packed up and Jesse dropped me off at a hostel downtown before driving out to the airport to head to Fiji for a week before returning home. So its just me now. It's been raining all day today so just been walking around getting all the errands done for India and maybe hit a movie later as all the tennis will be probably cancelled. Anyways, not much else to say, thanks for the comments everyone, i forgot about the singing up part, not always easy. well take care, might not put up another entry for a little bit. see you all later
