New Zealand

So we arrive in Christchurch at 12:00am, after finding a open car rental we tried to rent a car that night and go to a motel. But that cost to much to put on to manfred's credit card, so we spent the next few hours trying to sleep on the airport floor. After a few hours we were woken up by the airport security. So we called different car rentals and found one for half the price as a few hours before!!! So finally after checking everything was ok on the car we hit the road. 
Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep,Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep,Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep there are alot of sheep here and the meat is still expensive! NZ is mainly an export country!

Driving on the wrong side of the road is not as hard as I thought it would be. Although, whenever I want to turn left or right my windshild wippers would go crazy because it is on the other side.Also backing up is even harder then before, because you have to look over the oppesite shoulder, but other then reminding eachother to stay on the left side of the road we are doing ok!!

Ok so many people say the views in NZ are amazing, they are right every hour that we drive is a different landscape! So on the first day we drove through the

Mackenzie Country where we stopped at Lake Tekapo! After trying to drive around the lake (which did not work) we parked behind a gas station and went for a walk. Where some locals invited us for a BBQ and a beer, we ended up going to the local bar with them till the early morning. We then slept in the car and found that it was not that comfortable!

 The next day after saying goodbye to Mackenzie Country we headed down to Queenstown. Here we only had rain so we stayed one night in a hostel and moved on. We then drove through and over the southern alps and headed for the coast! By the time we saw the coast line it was dark, we then found a motel in a small village called Haast!!

The next day we visited the fox glacier, for us it was not that amazing, since we have skied on a glacier in the Alps!

We Also went kiwi (bird) searching! We did not find one though so we headed back to the car and found it with a dead battery! Yep I left the lights on (stupid)! Luckily we were near a cafe and the owner gave us a jump start! Now I'm paranoid and double, triple check the lights before I get out!! We made it all the way to Hakitika where we spent the night in a Backpackers.
