After 3 Days on A Bus..

We have finally arrived in Lake Taupo. We have been sat on a bus for 3 days straight, only getting off to eat and sleep in Christchurch & Wellington.
We crossed the cook stait on one of the roughest days of the year. They cancelled the crossing on the way back because of huge waves.
The ferry you cross on is huge, 10 decks high. We were stood looking over the bow from the windows of the 8th deck and waves were crashing over the bow and breaking onto the window. At one point the ship rocked so far to the left that all the chairs and tables slid to the wall. People were vomiting everywhere. It was absolute carnage. Sam lost her mind and had a panic attack which was entertaining. She kept repeating that she needed to know where she could get off the boat. I explained how that wasn't a good idea and she arrived safely without commiting suicide.
Its bucketing it down outside so the chances of us skydiving tomorrow are pretty slim.
