We drove the ‘Forgotten Highway’ and saw lots of nice green hills and sheep
Mt. Taranaki
I liked the contrast of the smooth white snow and the black rough volcanic rock that we saw on our hike through the mountains at Tongariro National Park.
In Rotorua, we rafted the Kaituna River, a class 5 with a 20 foot waterfall!
It was also cool because of our unique setting, there was a sacred sort of feel to this place. It was a narrow, winding river in a canyon surrounded by ferns, and the water was clear, yet colored with shades of emerald.
We had so much fun!
This is a slideshow of us going down the waterfall:
We went Zorbing! We dove head first into a large plastic ball that was filled with a little bit of warm water, and then they pushed the ball down a hill, with us inside of it rolling around and giggling the whole way down. When we got to the bottom of the hill we had to slide out a small opening, and we came out dripping wet and still giggling. It was silly fun, and we loved every second of it! This is a video of the zorb ball rolling down hill.
