Where it all began…
I am back in Auckland where I started 3 months ago!
Upon arrival it bucketed down and my shuttle was packed. It took over 1.5 hours to get to Ponsonby where I am staying in the brown kiwi backpackers.
I am now booked to fly to Hong Kong on Sunday :0). The Chinese new year starts on 9 Feb so get ready, I need a dragon head or something to parade around in the streets!
I think I feel better about leaving New Zealand now. I was very sad but that feeling has gone, for now anyway, probably due to the travelling I have done over the last 3 days, no rest between Napier, Gisborne and Auckland. Having said that I will miss it and certain people beyond measure. Nothing lasts forever and this trip is no exception.
I was due to be back in the UK on 1 Feb 2005 and I am not far off that date. I expect to be in London around mid February now. It does not feel like 5 minutes since I was setting off and arriving in Auckland back in November last year.
One thing is for certain, I will be continuing my travels at some future date so stay tuned…
