New Zealand! A bitter sweet arrival. Sweet because I'm excited to see another new country but bitter because this is the last leg of my trip. I decided to take the Kiwi Experience instead of driving myself so that I would get to meet lots of new people and have access to many activities. I spent the night in Christchurch at in a jail (converted into a hostel) and ran into friends from home, Kelsey and Greg who were also staying there! Such a small world and great to see them, especially since they helped me out a lot when I was planning my trip. The next morning, all three of us boarded the Kiwi Experience bus and headed off to Kaikoura! Along the way, we saw a colony of fur seals. In Kaikoura, we walked to a beautiful lookout point and I caught my first glimpse of the giant New Zealand mountains!
