Road Trip

hi!

So me and johnny (cousin) have rented a car and have been on a little road trip...we left Auckland on feb 4 and that night stayed in a motel in Hamilton...next morning we drove to Rotorua where we climbed a thermal volcano (i think it was created in 1886..so pretty recently)...then we attended a Maori Hangi (with the Mitai Tribe). That was pretty neat...we saw their village, some cultural performances and ate some food cooked in the ground (hangi) and then saw some glowworms. :) Pretty good time. Then we stayed in KiwiPaka YHA (hostel), where i proceeded to get my soap stolen. ;( my own fault though..i accidentally left it in the shower for a few hours..but WHO STEALS SOAP?? that's so weird...

This morning we left Rotorua, and came to Taupo...we went to Huka falls and found a free campsite (Reid's Farm)...then we went to Craters of the Moon...some more geothermal stuff..pretty cool i think....and in about 1 hour, Johnny and i will go skydiving with Skydive Taupo!!! yayyyyy. I think it will be good fun.

That's all for now, i'll post pictures when I get back to auckland!!
