My last trip in New Zealand! 😦 Extremely sad, but it was incredible! 😀
June 9th –
Kicked the trip off amazingly with a train ride with my pal and fellow TEAN’er, Evan from Wellington to Auckland! We left at 7:55 am and arrived around 7 pm. Yeah, it was a long ride but the view of the country side was worth it! Plus, now I can say I have taken a train through the North Island of New Zealand 😀
Caught the morning ferry from Wellington down to Picton on Saturday! The ride was 3-3.5 hours and it was a much bigger ferry than I thought it would be! I woke up way earlier than normal so I spent the first half of the trip inside sleeping and then the second half (which of course was more exciting as we got closer to Picton) up on the top deck.
This past weekend I made another trip to down to Wellington to meet up for a TEAN sponsored event to the Wellington Hurricane rugby game against Australia’s Western Force.
By no means am I an expert on rugby; heck, I barely understand the game at all! Even so, it was really neat to watch! And of course it’s enver a dull moment when I’m surrounded by my fellow NZ TEAN’ers 🙂
This past weekend I took my first trip to the capital city of New Zealand, Wellington!
It was nice to go visit the city and to meet up with some of the other students in TEAN.
The weekend ended up being very Lord of the Rings filled as a group of us are a little obsessed. Hey, I mean we are in Middle Earth after all!! We just have to take advantage of the sights and attractions while we can!
