The Mount

So Myself, Jonny & Ian had a week before we were going to be going back up to Auckland city for City lights so we decided on two options either go up to the bay of islands or pop down to mount maunganui for some more surfing and chilling out at the beach. So we got the coin toss out and surfing at the mount came up trumps.

We hitched down in a two and a one but ended up in the same ride the whole way down so it worked out well handy. We even got a ride with a professional basketball player who plays on the New Zealand national team. We stay at the wonder full Donna's house in Papamoa again as she again put us up and looked after us. We spent the next couple of days Surfing in the boiling sun, Watching Ian's Pittsburgh win the Superbowl, Trek down to a hidden waterfall inland & another walk up the mount as well to top things off.

After all this I needed to get some things done for my visa application. So one morning I got a Medical Check up in order to see that I'm working OK and I'm not gonna cause to many problems in my 12 month visit cause if I'm not the healthiest its safe to say they don't want me here. Then off i went to get the chest X-ray ed, and then onto a blood test. Now i nearly hit the deck on the blood test but tensed up the body and held out long enough to lie down and give this old body a couple of Min's to stabilise, Yeah i know kinda of pathetic.

So then back up to Auckland city for the final event of the hitch hiking trip with the lads.
