New Zealand Day 6

Obviously John & Tim won the pool! Twice! They will talk about the night that 2 old english grandads beat the local talent for months! They are now legends in Rotorua!

The weather started off wet but soon became glorious - started in a Maori village looking at thermal pools and old geysers (nothiong new there for us!).

Auditioning for Singing in the Rain.....


This one's called "Grumpy Old Man ", anyone come to mind?

Then we went onto the Sky ride (gondola) and the LUGE! The most fun you can have without snow! We started on the scenic run but loved it so much, we did the advanced run! Hair raising and VERY fast! Left the ground completely at one point, but managed to stay upright.

Route 1, head down and going for it!


Finsished the day with a picnic by Lake Roturua - a bit cold but the sun was shining.
Off to Napier tomorrow.

    Just to make you laugh, I was in Tesco with Amber and a lady came up to me to admire your crochet blanket!! HA HA HA

  2. We see Tim's looking a bit younger these days going down in the luge photo!! Must be all that fresh air he's getting!!

    Our days not quite as exciting doing Val's CIS return and waiting at the ranch for the van man to return Tim's pride and joy at 6!!

    Val, we've just had the pleasure of meeting pongo (face-face quite literally!!) he's a playful little thing isn't he!! Trev seemed more interested in getting home for his dinner, surprise, surprise!

    Hope you guys continue to have loads of fun, it looks cool and think of us while your living the high life downing tequilla shots every night and we're slaving away back here!! ;-)
