Let the adventure begin!

... of mozzie spray. Hmm&#8230; that really didn&#8217;t make much difference.<br><br>Alan showed up that night, and we went through the pack together after I bemoaned how heavy it still was. He was ruthless! How is a girl to get by without moisturizer and shower gel though? We took a few more things out of the pack. It&#8217;s funny how I very quickly stopped caring about taking bits and pieces &#8211 ...

Raft it!

... and got into Rotorua around lunchtime. We also happened to meet up with the Irish we were traveling with down on the South Island (Dave, Aidan and Niamh). It turned out Dave wanted to do the rafting as well so it was handy. In the afternoon we to went to the Rotorua luge. We thought it was good fun in Queenstown and it turned out it was even better here in Rotorua. The were more tracks and they were longer, definitely one of the better value for money adventure ...

Viosit to the Geysers of Rotorua

... hours when the earth is removed. We have meat cooked this way or so we were told. One of the highlights was to see a kiwi in a nocturnal enclosure. We clearly say it digging with its long beak looking for worms. The final excursion was to a area where trout were reared in a fresh water stream which had been landscaped to look as natural as possible with trees and pools. A nice day to relax after the festivities of Christmas. t

Rotorua - Day 1

Hi Everyone, I have finally got some time to do day 1 of our time in Rotorua. We are planning t do quite a few things here over the 4 days we are staying here. Day 1 we went on the gondola and then spent some time on the luge tracks. You may recall we did something similar in Queenstown but ...

... another!). We drove through Cambridge on the way here; Cambridge is very affluent, the centre of the horse racing world and has produced Melbourne Cup winners - which is the highest acolade there is in this part of the world. It's also a great canoeing centre, and two gold medallists in Beijin trained there. We had another super meal at another Harbourside restaurant; the fish here is second to none. And then it was nearly a two-hour drive back; we ...

Rotorua

... adventure sports. Like Queensland. On the way to Rotorua, we stopped by in Taupo and visited Huka Falls. This is a magnificent waterfall which rushes down the Waikato River. The waterfall drop is 11 metres and is absolutely stunning. (David: The stunning bit is that it drops that 11 metres whizzing through a narrow gorge. The pictures explain it better.) Next, we went to Craters of the Moon. This is a 50,000 metre square geothermal field. Before you lies the vast stretch of arid ...

Rotorua (Day 2)

... Huka Falls from the ground. Wow! As we descended into Taupo we both were blown away with the beauty. Snow capped mountains surrounded this huge crater lake. The town was so quaint and peaceful. We stayed Twin Peaks Motel which was right on the lake with terrific views. It was quite cold that night and we only had one small space heater so the electric blankets were a nice treat.

white knuckles and other shenanigans

... 17th arrived and we were on our way to TAURANGA! A solid 4 hour drive. WAY TO GO DENISE! I got to sleep, hahah another surprise. However, after spending a week and a half here, we have yet to find jobs. I had an interview at a fitness place that had power plates (vibrating machines), but i didn't get it. I've applied at grocery stores, cafes, the warehouse(like a wal-mart), bookstores, and movie theatres. No one seems to want to hire us because they don't know how long we'll be ...

Meer klussen en meer Ridgebacks

... jaar uit het water. De boot wordt wel uitgerust met het nieuwste van het nieuwste: flatscreen tv's die uit het plafond naar beneden zakken, navigatieapparatuur enzovoort. We rijden met de auto naar Mount Manganui en bekijken de golven voor een tijdje. Paul is een enthousiast surfer en vertelt me vanalles over de stromingen en kunstriffen, speciaal hier aangelegd voor de surfers in dit gebied. Met de honden nog steeds in de auto, rijden we richting het zuiden. Sheeba, de oma ...
