That evening we just chilled out and chatted outside for a bit but I stayed off the alcohol. Then we had a stop off in Rotorua which has lots of geo-thermal activity with mud pools, volcanoes and just random grates emitting steam. It was really weird and meant that the whole town has a really horrible smell! Unfortunately it rained while we were there so all I did really was wander the town a bit with a friend, sit and have a glass of wine and some wedges by the lake and then head back in the evening. Then we went on to the Maouri cultural evening where we learnt a bit more about their culture by wandering round an imitation of what their village would be like, watching some dancing ( a bit freaky when they open their eyes really wide and stick out their tongue) and enjoy their food. It was lovely food and it was a buffet so I made myself feel pretty sick with that.

Then we headed back to the hostel and all sung songs on the bus! In the morning, we got our bus to Auckland. The day we got there we also met up with a few people guys we'd said bye to in Queenstown and then had a night out which was really good fun and there was a nice group of us that had been travelling together throughout New Zealand. Auckland was actually quite a nice city and we had a bit of a wander of the shops while we were there too. The next day we just chilled out and I had to get my flight to Fiji.
