I'm still in Auckland; I'm struggling with a fatigue that seems to be part jet lag, part recuperating from pre-travel exhaustion, and part annoying cold *tragic face* My energy level keeps wavering: I was able to scramble up a 50' *extremely* sheer cliff face this morning (only to discover that the mountain in question had a perfectly nice footpath running up the other side), but had to sit and rest twice on the way back down. Am currently contemplating/planning a sky jump for tomorrow AM (take that, cold!); tomorrow, I'm planning to go on a tour of the North part of the island (including a swing by Matamata, where Hobbiton was built), but that's up in the air right now, due to health issues. Still, it's absolutely impossible to be depressed about any of this; wherever I go from here, it'll be an adventure. New Zealand is paradise; I could see myself living here.

Glad you're having a good time!

Lots of protein may help with energy levels; the old jet lag rule is "starch to sleep, protein to perk up". Hope you're recovered soon and keep having a great time!

Poor adventurer...I hope your system straightens out soon.

Shy request:
If you go to 'Hobbiton,' take pics? Or pick up a small stone for me, if you are so moved to do so?

Aw, jealousy-- I'm not going to make it to the north island, so soak up the Hobbiton vibes for me. I hope you feel better! Get lots of fruits/vitamins (C will perk up your immune system) and take it easy on yourself.

you're the tenth person to tell me how paradise-like NZ is. I can't wait!!
