Approaching Rotorua, you can smell the sulphurous, thermal activity long before you catch sight of the town itself

Whakarewarewa

We visited the Maori village of Whakarewarewa, with its thermally heated public baths, geysirs and treacherous lakes of boiling water.

Lake Rotorua

Rotorua lies beside a lake of the same name, with tranquil shores and many black swans and other waterbirds. Also nearby are many forests, nice beaches and plenty of sites with thermal activity.

    Memories!! I was born in NZ. Haven't been to these places for many years. You have certainly seen a lot of the world.
