It's been a hectic week or however many days it has been. It already feels as if I have been gone for a month. Im making this post just cover my first little bit of the trip. I landed in Fiji on the 28th of September after leaving Victoria on the 26th. The plane ride to Fiji was very comfortable as the plane was half full so I was able to lay down across three seats and sleep for most of it. The hotel in fiji was really nice and allowed me plenty of time to recover from the incredible jet-lag I experienced after my flight. I spent a full two days getting my internal clock sorted out and inline with the local time. The weather in Fiji was great probably between 25-35 the whole time even at night. The hotel had a great restaurant even though I didn't eat much for the first bit. It's important to note the Canadian dollar is doing really well against the Fiji dollar with the exchange rate around $1CAD = $1.53FJD.
Since then I have made my journey to New Zealand and am currently residing at the Auckland
Central Backpackers Hostel in Auckland, NZ. It's a nice place and I've met some cool people here. I am currently sharing a room with two people - a guy from Ohio and a girl from Maine. I havent done much here in Auckland yet but I plan to go base jumping off the Skytower here in Auckland early next week.
I'll be doing my best to post here every day or two and will be posting pictures when the cable for my camera gets here.
