A lovely night view of one of the buildings in Rotorua. Oh....and it rains quite a lot there! |
|
|
The Lady Knox Geyser duly erupted after it had received a dose of detergent emetic to get it working. |
|
|
Lots and lots of geothermal activity everywhere here. |
|
|
The Champagne Lake at Wai-O-Tapu Geothermal Park. Beautiful colours - though I've tasted much better champagne than this (only joking). |
|
|
Another view showing the extensive steam clouds over the (scalding hot) lake. |
|
|
The Green Lake. Need any more be said? |
|
|
A bubbling sulfurous pool with ample deposits of sulfur coating the rocks. |
|
|
A scene near the Wai-O-Tapu Park. Rather Jurassic in appearance. I half expected a T-Rex to poke its head out from behind one of the tree ferns. |
|
|
The largest "large latte" I've ever seen (or tried to drink) available at the Wai-O-Tapu Park. More accurately described as "mega" - I had the "caffeine shakes" by the time I'd finished it! Nice though. An Aussie 20c piece is there for scale. |
