Day 11 Easter Sunday
Day 11
Happy Easter! The Easter Bunny found our campervan!
Checked out the Sunday markets in Rotorua. Cameron learnt a valuable lesson about imitation toys purchased from dodgy markets. Ann bought some yummy nuts.
Looked at some more stinky steaming holes in the ground before moving on to Taupo.
First stop “The Craters of the Moon” – more steaming holes (technically craters and fumaroles) in the ground but these ones were not stinky (yay!) and also had lots of pretty vegetation which made it look quite amazing.
Next stop Huka Falls – lots and lots of water gushing over the falls. Enough to fill 5 Olympic pools each minute! Woah!
Into the town itself for much needed food and a stroll along the lake front. Chris had a go at scoring a Hole in One onto a pontoon placed in Lake Taupo. Apparently 772 people have done it before but Chris did not come away with the $10,000 unfortunately.
Back to camp for a swim, a kids movie, dinner and bed. Happy Easter.
