NZed

I'm writing this from one of my favorite places in the world, an Apple Store, so it has to be short. New Zealand was pretty cool. I'm glad Dave is living there and I got to stay with him. The 1st day I was there I just walked around the city center and saw stuff on Queen Street. It was pretty cool, but Auckland is a small city by big city standards. The next day Dave took off from work/school and we went to two beaches close by. We took the narrowest and most winding roads I have ever been on, but the drive was worth it because the beaches were so unique. One of the beaches had black sand because of all of the volcanic activity. It also had a really cool waterfall that we hiked too. I know everyone is thinking that I wouldn't hike anywhere. Well, it was a short hike. The other beach a cliff in the middle and we climbed up it. That climb was much more difficult and I have some really cool pictures but no way to get them on here.

I started writing a blog post in the airport this morning, but waiting in airports is quickly becoming my least favorite part of traveling. It is when I become the most homesick. The rest of the time I am busy doing things or trying to figure out what to do or at least I have something on my mind. When I'm waiting in the airport and there is nothing going in, it sucks.

I just arrived in Sydney but so far it is pretty cool. It reminds me of New York, and I really like New York. My goal is to try to find a place to stay for more than two days, so now I have to get to that.
