Just a quick update to let y'all know where it's at! I've about two weeks left in the Coromandel Peninsula, then I'm off to Auckland to watch the All Blacks play France.  After that it's "buy the ticket home" time..

At the moment I'm working away in a hotel resort beside a stunning beach so am spending my days off surfing & swimming.. Plenty of bush walks to do too. Generally I'm just enjoying my last few weeks down under.

No more car as the engine basically blew when I was driving to the local town to fix the radiator a few weeks back. It's strange not having a car as I don't have that freedom anymore.  It does save me a fortune though - no petrol to worry about..

That's about it really - I'll keep you posted on when I should arrive in Ireland.

 

p.s. Good luck Ivan with the Leaving Cert & studies etc..
