Rotorua

Never anything worth watching on the TV on a Saturday evening so I enjoyed a couple of heygo tours in New Zealand.

First tour - Government Gardens or Paepaekumana, located on an old Maori battle field. Generously, the Maori gave a large tract of the land including many therapeutic hot springs to the British Crown in the 1880s to benefit the people of the world.

Second tour with Louise to Rotorua Kuirau Thermal Park - The Maori folklore has it that a young woman named Kuiarau was swimming in the main lake when a mythical creature dragged her to the bottom. It is said that the gods were angered by this and made the lake boil so the creature would be destroyed. The name of the main lake is taken from that lost woman.

Two great tours and after all that walking it was good that Louise could visit the thermal foot spa.
