Second jump!

Lisa's 20s birthday this Friday and we thought; why not celebrate with bungy jump from Harbour bridge in Auckland. Our second jump since we both did the one in Queenstown. This was "only" 40m  but I chose to do it backwards and dip in the water, which was extremely scary but defiantly worth it! 






I leaned over the edge and then he dropped me


Of course I brought my GoPro so when my movie of New Zealand is done you'll see the jump








We survived and went off to celebrate Lisa with dinner and party.
Happy birthday! 




Lovely moments

Finally I post these pictures who've been waiting few weeks to be posted haha. Have no idea why it's bad quality though...

What should I name this post?

As you can see I have been really bad to update since few months ago. I haven't either post the rest of my south island (as promised) and most miserable of all I didn't even post any pictures of my parents month here in NZ. What a shame, I realize to write a blog might not be something for me, but to be fare to my family and friends at home I have selected a few photos of everything!
From here and now I start with my weekly updates and continue as I did before my vacation and the busy schedule I had the last two months. Been traveling almost every weekend since christmas and my hostfamily just got the house sold. Congratulations! I have only seen the new house in pictures, but it seems to be great! Before moving in to the new house, the baby has to come and we look forward to meet the little girl.
Sunday night I left my parents at the airport with tears. I already miss them a lot and I loved to have them here. Thanks mum and dad for the lovely time and I hope NZ caught your heart as it have done with mine (Grandmother, you don't have to come and get me because this doesn't mean I'm going to move here <3 ), I'm just saying I defiantly will visit NZ again in the future.

White water rafting with mum and dad, SO MUCH FUN.
