Just a quick update to let everyone know I'm well. I only have 2 minutes on this computer for now.
Since last I wrote, I've been to Turangi and am now in Rotarua. I climbed most of Mt. Ruapehu, and had great views of Mt. Doom (Lotr reference) from there. I have been swimming in Lake Taupo, which has beaches of pumice stones. I've been to a fish hatchery, seen waterfalls, and walked along a trail full of geothermal sulfuric vents.
Now I'm about to go white water rafting. Apparently there's a 21 ft drop that's the largest commercially run in the world. It's along the Wairoa River I believe. 14 drops in all!
I'll try to post photos from my laptop when I get back.
Wish me luck, Ttyl! =)
