My hostel has a NZ$7.50 3/4 pint and plate of chili deal, which is pretty good.

I did the 19.4km alpine crossing today with minimal injury (photos to come).

Wellington tomorrow.

Ways in which Auckland is better than Perth:

24 hour fair trade coffee

Heading to NZ for 2 weeks starting this afternoon.

See you all later!
