We are now in Wellington. Here's what has happened since my last post.
We left Taupo and went to Rotorua. Didn't really do much in Taupo because it rained all the time we were there.

While waiting we went to the Maori cultural center - we saw a show there as well as a geyser and some carving.
We then went to Napier. We went on a winery tour there.
We are now in Wellington, we will be heading to the south island in a few days.
