Hiking, Biking, Swimming, Snorkelling

Hello! Again, internet is expensive here so I can't type for long! The last couple of days have been great; Pam and I found some really good spots to snorkel and saw a blue starfish and some eels, as well as triggerfish and lots of little colorful angelfish. We've rented bikes which is really fun, and a lot easier to get around. Yesterday we hiked up Raemaru in the rain, and couldn't do the cliffs at the end because it was too slippery, but the views of the valleys and the coast were really nice. It's been cloudy which is AWESOME because the sun is so hot here. I'm pretty tan, but with my SPF 55 I haven't gotten really burnt yet. Everyone at the backpackers is really nice, and we all get on really well. Someone rented Borat last night, and we all sat around drinking Cook Islands Rum and coke and watching the movie. So fun :) This is my last post til I get to NZ, so I hope everyone is well! Talk to you soon :)
