Trout @ Lake Taupo

Probably the most famous spot in New Zealand for sports fishing.

Hooked 3 landed 3.

The lake is the biggest in New Zealand. We trolled at 210ft. for about 2-3hrs.

Here's a picture of my good self with fish.

Zorbing - NZ

Popularised by Andrew Akers, Zorbing is the pursuit which involves immersing yourself in water, surrounding yourself in a giant inflatable ball, then rolling yourself down a hill.

I took two rolls, one with harness the other immersed in bubble bath.

Here’s a video.

Wai o Tapo - Geyser

One of the main attractions and features of Rotorua and the area is the high level of geothermal activity.

On the same rift as White Island, mentioned earlier in this blog, Rotorua is renowned for it baths and geothermal formations.

No where can these be found in more glory than at the Wai-o-Tapo park.
