Tarawera has been dormant since 1886. |
 |
 |
But there are still bubbling suferous mud pits.
|
| Even right in the botanical gardens. |

Noel did not enjoy the smell. |
| Hellsgate
was appropriately named. |

The sign says " Persons who throw litter or stones into the
thermal pools may be asked to retrieve them." |
 |
 |
| We stayed at a very nice B&B
that is also a deer and ostrich farm (and some sheep and elk). |

The sheep
show was surprisingly entertaining (yes, those dogs are sitting on
the sheep - after running on top of them)
|
|
The zorb was
definitely the most bizarre thing we did - get in a big plastic
cushioned ball with some water and roll down a hill. Amazingly
fun. (Especially when we were both in it!)

| More gondalas and luges. |
