NZ posts!!!

talking abt NZ, 好想念那里喔,哈哈。

Went with my godparents and their 4 kids.lol.yes 4 kids including an infant. total headache. haha.


Day 1 (23 Nov)

At changi airport.Flight at 8pm. My mum came to send me off. Father was sick. sis was in taiwan.



when we were just about to board the plane @ changi airport.




It has been so many years since i took a plane. haha. First plane was a 7 hours journey to sydney. Then transit to another plane 3 hours to christ church. If you ask me what did i do during that 7 hours, uh... I er just slept although i couldn't really sleep and eat and bringing the kids to pee(they keep wanting to pee!) cuz gan ma needed to take care of the baby. can u believe the temperature outside the plane was -50 degrees? wow.

supper!


Gan ma told me that the ang moh lady sitting beside her is unbelievable! The plane we boarded at changi flew all the way from London, and she was in it. Now the plane flies to Sydney, another 7 hours, then aft that she need to take another 20 hours drive to her son's place. D: wooooow.


when we reached sydney airport. The view was quite nice outside although it was just the airport. lol.


The kids were admiring the planes taking off and landing..haa




On the 2nd plane to christ church, I was disappointed cuz it wasn't a window seat again ): Normally air stewards are young ladies right? But on this plane the air stewards are ang moh guys and old aged and some bald head. LOL. Maybe qantas planes are like that. This plane was not as shaky as the first one we took to sdyney. I think first plane had more wind turbulence.




finally we’ve reached christ church airport after more than 10hours! the local time was around 2pm 24 nov. New zealand time is 5 hours ahead of s’pore.



we cant bring any fresh food upon arrival, their security was strict, there’s one lady whose dog sniffed our bag and thought there were food in our bag but it was just the baby’s milk powder or fruits that we had put in the bag earlier on. Maybe the smell is still there thats why the dog detected the smell. lol.




the very first view when i step out of christ church airport. The moment i step out i could feel the cold breeze blowing at me *grits teeth*


We proceeded to the campervan rental shop for our campervan. Took a taxi there.

This is how our campervan looks like inside.~ Actually it was quite squeezy for 7 persons but out of 7, 4 are children so at least it's not THAT bad, but it's bad still. lol.




Guess who sleeps here?


me. haha.

it’s right at the top! the kids like to climb up there wish to sleep up there but they cant cuz they’re too small haa



When we went to the shop we realised there were lack of one seat belt and so we had to bring the van back the next day for them to help us install a manual one. Went to a chinese restaurtant nearby for dinner.



Went to countdown supermarket (which is the name of the supermarket) to do groceries and then rented a cabin at Amber park for the night. We were not familiar with roads and the van, so 1st day was quite a mess, like getting lost, and took quite long to find a place but the ang mohs we asked for directions are quite helpful and friendly. hahaha.


The cabins at Amber park wasnt bad at all although it's just a motel.




I guess that concludes for the day(24 Nov).
