Day 42 Friday 5th May Last night was brilliant as the Maori's got us up on stage to do the Haka with them and gave us a wooden necklace for our 'bravery' A group of Japanese tourists then grabbed us to dance in couples on stage, so had a real fun evening with them. My room was fab with a huge lounge a triple bed and two balconies, they gave me a complimentary upgrade, but there was a note in the room from the manager to Rob, so they may have upgraded me by mistake :o) In the morning went for a swim in the thermal pool before breakfast and then a hot tub and then off to watch the Lady Know Geyser erupt, followed by the Wai-o-tapu thermal park, with spectacular boiling mud, the champagne pools with red coloured rocks and small champagne likes bubbles rising in the thermal water and colourful yellow and green pools, with great names like Devil's Cauldron. Saw the awesome Huka Falls with millions of gallons of water flowing through each day. Visited Lake Taupo's boat harbour and then a Maori village where thermal geysers spring up unexpectedly in the middle of peoples gardens. Leave Rotorua for the 3 ride back to Auckland, arrived back just in time to get dinner in the revolving restaurant at the top of Sky Tower with beautiful views of the city :o)
