... it helped them with their jet lag too. We had a lazy morning; watched the kids play together, chitty chatted with each other and enjoyed quality time with our family that we so rarely have. <br><br><br>Off to Taharepa Road to check out the new house that we would be calling home for the next few months....gorgeous! Marck&#8217;s Aunt &amp; Uncle have holiday home here at the lake that they so ...

We woke up to an overcast day down on lake rotorua so we decided to pack camp away and head for Taupo. <br><br>On driving out of Rotorua the heavens opened and down came the rain. Knowing our heater doesnt work in the car we had to keep wiping the windscreen to see out of it when driving. By the time we had reached Taupo, Jon was sick to death of the rain cos it made the car steam up! <br><br>Anyway we parked up and went for a wander round. We ...

How long will it take for hotels to offer free internet?  How does the little coffee shop aside the hotel offer free wi-fi broadband when you buy just a $2 cup of coffee while every hotel seems to charge close to $30 a day WITH limited upload/download ...

... ascent, looked at mea and said "Man, this is sport!" It was. Finally I made my way over to the more formed lava flow, where the footing was more secure. But by then I'd blown so much steam. It was supposed to take at least an hour and a half to get to the top, and that's what it took me. I was a little dissappointed with my performance, but whatever. There was a good group of guys up top and we ...

... the National Park and Mount Doom are amazing. I feel like I'm in the centre of the Lord of the Rings set!!! So this morning we get back on the bus and head to Wellington. YES! Where I will leave the bus for a few days, maybe a week and re-charge! Then decide what I'm gonna do next... Hopefull I will meet up with the cool dutch girl Sanhe who I met in Paihia too. We bonded over Green Tea :)) Angie Bee signing off xxxx

... see (especially since the Chinese woman in front seemed so keen to show us the back of her head) and the crowds quickly began to disperse. In order to avoid getting stuck at teh back of a long traffic-jam, we hurried back to the van and the main centre to try to beat the worst of the hordes. The main thermal area was fascinating - a weird landscape of bubbling puddles, foul-smelling steam, giant craters, trickling streams and crystals reminiscent of the set for an alien ...

Thursday morning had started off as normal as possible. I woke up from my slumber (haha), had a quick shower, and a light breakfast. Around 9:30 a bungy van came to pick us up for our jump. It was a pretty good idea considering that I wouldn't be able to concentrate on driving at all. We got there and saw this Asian man jump off backwards....ok, I'll see if i need to go to the bathroom because I ...

... but Mayweather was deadly with his, picking off the Hit Man with brutal efficiency. <br><br>Mayweather also did a great job of hitting Ricky with every dirty trick in the book, head, elbows, shoulder, forearm, you name it. The ref should have penalised him, but Ricky was the only one punished, for a ...

Tous revenons vers le centre du pays pour découvrir l'un des lacs les plus connus de l'île du Nord, le lac Taupo. Le paysage est typique de la nouvelle Zélande avec en arrière plan les volcans du parc national de Tongariro. Nous commencons petit ...

... that was developed here in NZ due to all the braided rivers (aparantly). So we were given our lifevests and waterproofs and were soon in the boat all squished up together holding on to the heated hand rail - it was quite cold this morning - and then we were off - it does go so very fast - and then at random intervals it throws in a 360 degree spin and goes so close to the walls at other points that you think you are going to crash it was ...
