Maccies for breakfast, which in Taupo has a little aeroplane to sit in and eat too X3
I wanted to see a place called Orakei Korako today, another place we've seen before but i think you should see again XD It was really expensive to get in this time though, so it could be the last time we go. It's a natural thing, all caused by the thermal activity of the area. I was a little disappointed in that they closed off one of my favourite areas, a massive cave, but since no one was around me and Jen went down into the cave anyway and mooched at the warm water pool at the bottom, one of only 2 known in the world apparently!
We also had a closer look around Huka falls today, my camera doesn't do it justice i don't think, this thing is huge and so blue.

was there a reason for the closer of the cave. I cant remember the water at the bottom steaming, it was cold when I was there a few years ago, still a lovely place to look so perhaps the price rise is to stop so mant people going over

They didn't give us any reason for the cave to be closed, we guessed it might be because of rockfalls or health and safety or something.
Strange the lake was cold when you were last there, I seem to remember it being warm before. If not maybe it's sudden warming is why you're not supposed to go in the cave anymore!
I think the price rise might just be greed ;d

Can't beat oraki, its even better when you break the rules and dad climbs over the fences to throw rocks in the mud pools XD
