back to summer

OK, enough of this snow.  Let's pretend it's not still white and frozen outside and we're back in New Zealand

.... and here we are at Rotoroa and you've caught Mike training for the Hakka

 incredible walking around the Maori village in Rotorua amongst the thermal hot springs

 then the amazing carvings

 and the erupting mud pools

whoppping great geysers

and rainbow colours of the thermal pools

next was Katharine and Neil's wonderful wedding on Waiheke, in an earlier post, so we'll be zooming to the South Island soon - watch this space . . . .
