It truely was the best part of the trip! Shame its come to an end but at least we will be able to chill out now and not have to be up at 6.30 every morning after a night out! That evening I met up with Deano and Sam and went out for a meal! It was nice to see Guerns again. We went ...

Back to Taupo again, not alot to say apart from it was a long LONG drive through scenery that we have already seen and stops that we had slready been to! Oh well.
