Taupo

We stayed here for a couple of days in the hope of doing a sky dive - it wasn't to be this time round but we'll hopefully still get one in, weather permitting! So, in the drizzling rain we went off exploring. We visited Taupo's rapids and experienced the volcano centre which was a little dated. The highlight's had to be the prawn farm. We can now officially claim to have eaten at the worlds only Geothermically heated freshwater prawn farm. The prawns were delicious and we quickly forgot we were meant to be jumping out of a plane.

Yum yum yummy

We also took a drive and caught a glimpse of Mount Ruapehu but we'll be visiting this place again very soon...

Well be seeing this volcano again - hopefully a lot closer
