15,000 FEET IS NOTHING

Wednesday I left for Rotorua, NZ and had a good time. The bus arrived at 7:25 a.m. and was very far from full. I'm travelling with the 'Magic' tour company.



The highlights from yesterday were - the Glow Worms - aka that glowing magots in the caves... pretty cool stuff, I managed to get in trouble for taking photos - and I didn't use a flash.



We also stopped off to see the Rabbits have their fur cut off while waiting for another group to finish with their activity.



Then we rode the bus to Rotorua and spent some quality time in the evening getting food, chilling out and drinks for a birthday.



Today, we took a short trip to Taupo. On our journey we stopped at Wai-o-tapu to see the Lady Knox geyser and to see all of the sulfer pools in the worlds most active geo-thermal area.



The smell was not at all nice.



The money grab of the day was Skydiving. After consulting with others, I made the leap at 15,000 feet. It was quite a rush and lots of fun, I would even do it again.



Here is a picture from the jump.



Until later...
