After leaving Auckland we arrived late at night to the beautiful smell of eggs. This place is just full of thermal activity and was fascinating. We took in a cultural show, saw the Haka being performed plus we visited two places where we walked amongst bubbling mud pools, geysers and hot steaming pools exceeding temperatures of 100C! Even the ground we were walking on was warm/hot and for once Nic didn't have cold feet!

We couldn't see each other at some points as there was so much steam!

This goes off 10 times a day

We also relaxed in a Polynesian Spa, submerging ourselves in hot sulpher pools which were 42 degrees plus. Oohh and not forgetting the full body massage each - oooh! This travelling is sooo hard....
