Hey Everyone,

Been a busy couple of days , apart from NY that is. On the 30th spent the afternoon doing some caving (can;t spell the proper word for it!!). 30m abseils into pitch blackness and down waterfalls, squeezing through holes and tunnels om belly and swimming through subterrainian cavenrs. Also bit of rock climbing and scrambling and of course the world famous glow worms. Very cool experience!!

Today we spent the morning exploring the thermal park and checking out geysers, hot springs, boiling mud pools and smoking craters. Smelly but cool.

In the afternoon we did a spot of Zorbing which is basically rolling down a hill in a giant rubber ball half filled with water. Wicked fun and seriously considering buying one when i get home as they are excellent craic :))

Tomorrow we are getting up at 5:30 to do the Tongerrara crossing which is NZ best walk. 18km over some pretty serious mountains. Most of it is over 2500m so will be a little chilly. More when I get back down.

Bye for now,

Me
