...Was pretty awesome. We had just been in Rotarua, known for its geothermal action, and headed south. This spot is still in the hot zone, and is situated right next to this boiling hot spring....(is about 98 degrees Celsius at the spring)...
...which they use to feed their 6 hot spring pools and tubs.
Use of hot spring pools and camping in this gorgeous valley was about $29 US. Big fan of NZ.
other posts coming soon when i have the wifi and patience to load more photos. So far have had a great time in Auckland, Waiheke, Hobbiton, Glow Worm Caves, Rotorua, and now on the way to Taupo and Tongoriro. Whoop!
