... steam coming out the ground all around the town and the houses that have heating systems provided by the ground. <br><br>We decided to go white water rafting which was great fun but a little scary when we tipped over going down the 7ft waterfall. We have nothing against Japanese people but our previous trips have never ended well when we have been accompanied by young Japanese ...

... people I am staying with, Keith and Beth, are delightful, albeit very confusing. I am not sure if they are married, lovers, partners of some sort, or otherwise. They are a bit older, which may be a reason why I'm feeling a bit lonesome - it's just the three of us and the cat. <br> The travels went fine; I didn't lose anything and my flights were all on time or early. I've had my first reaction to hearing the accent again and was surprised to find it ...

... throughout the plane for 6-8 hours. Even the overhead lights didn&#8217;t work, so I resorted to using my cell phone&#8217;s light to read Sports Illustrated.<br><br> Thankfully, the IFE came back on with 3 hours left. I watched an Auckland Travel Guide and some British or Australian shows to get me in the cultural mood. My ...

... the trail and experience the adventure together. Man, what I beautiful place! Turqoise water, lush vegetation and trees, little islands, and sandy beach bays. Wanted to jump in, as it looked inviting, but alas, it is Fall down here, and yes, I couldn't tolerate the chill of the ocean. I can see why this place is so popular in summer. We met up with two Aussies and two Chileans, both named Pablo. We all ate together and sat out under the stars ...

Nu we onze camper hebben binnengebracht, zijn we gestrand in Auckland, de eerste grote stad op ons reispad. Met 1.2 miljoen inwoners is het hier wel druk...toch vergeleken met de rest van Nieuw-Zeeland. Het centrum mist hier een beetje charme, maar de vulkanische eilanden aan de kustlijn maken dit wel goed. Met veel spijt in ons hart zullen we morgen Nieuw Zeeland verlaten, maar we kijken wel met veel enthousiamse uit naar Australie en zon, zee en ...

... of 60 km p/h, it was an amzing feeling. After the north we headed back to auckland and on to Mercury bay and cathedral cove where more beautiful beaches awaited us. Our next stop was Rotorua or Rotten -rua due to the sulphur dioxide smell of eggs. We went luging down a mountain here which was great fun and we both managed to stay on, unlike some other people who had nasty cuts on them. After the luging we went to a Mauri experience in a ...

Hi arrived here yesterday about 6pm from Sydney. It only took 2 hrs 20 min, but we lost 2 hrs with the time zone. Here, we are 12 hrs infront of GMT. Our flight was with Qantas, which meant we got the full service. So it was good to get the inflight meal, and relax to a movie. We're staying at another good Base hostel. Well run and good facilities. They had an all you can eat pizza night last night, for $10 + a drink ...

We docked in Auckland at 7 am, overcast and we had been told to expect rain but by the time we got off the ship the sun had come out and it was hot. As Christine had been here before we decided not to do a tour but to do our own thing. Auckland have people employed especially to help tourists so we made good use of them before venturing off on our own. We caught the explorer bus which would take us round the city. Unfortunately because of ...
