Leaving Auckland

Hooray! I bought a car today! And it's a sweet, sweet ride.
It's a Nissan Avenir. Whatever that is. But it's a station wagon with plenty of room to sleep in the back. Just like my truck at home. Sweet.


My new driving machine 

So tomorrow I'm off to northland to go hiking, camping and exploring New Zealand!

But onto fun stuff. I went out last night again with people from the hostel. It was another social event that was sponsored by the hostel. There was a raffle for prizes and guess who won.
ME!!!
Ungh!

Me with my prize voucher

I won a bus tour to the bay of islands. Then a friend from the hostel, Ross won the grand prize which was a bus tour around the entire north island. Since Ross didn't want it, he tried to give it away to me. But that's not fun. So the event people made me get up on stage and do a trick or talent. So I did my monkey noise. Apparently no one else wanted to get on stage and make an ass of themselves. So I won the prize! Sweet!

The rest of the night I celebrated my win all over Auckland. There was even karaoke involved. I didn't sing. There's just not enough booze in the world to get me to karaoke. But it was really fun.
