Tauranga, New Zealand

Tauranga, New Zealand

So today is Thursday (we think). Yesterday we got up and headed over to the Bungy place, this is the highest water touch bungy in NZ! This was so much fun - getting the nerve to throw yourself off a 156 foot drop is quite a challange but we managed it!

In the afternoon we walked to Huka falls - for a free attraction this was beautiful and the walk along the river was pretty cool too. (i think the rasberry and pinapple callipo may also have been a highlight).

On our way back we took a swim in the river, the water was so clear you could see 30 foot below, however the water here was quite chilly, futher down the River we found a Natrual thermal spring and spent a small time lazing in the BOILING water! it was lush!

We arived back to the hostel around 6pm, had dinner and headed out to find an internet place (to update you all) - unfortunatly this was closed, so we did the next best thing and got drunk in an Irish bar with the locals! Was a truley Awsome day!

This all happened in Taupo not Tauranga!Grace has one update to do and this is what happens!!
