Rotorua

Day 5 Jan 18
drive up to Whiritoa beach for a walk thru the forest and then onto Rotorua...see plenty of thermal wonders an eat a little fried fish...lots to do here, zorb, luge or spa...mid day we make our way to Lake Rerewhakaaitu for our first wilderness camp...no electricity, flushing toilet or running water...Nanc and I took a walk thru the forest and Deb cycled along the path...her first outing on the bike was nightmarish, one of the girls had 2 flats and Debs bike’s handle bars were not straight (making a ride tough) and the bike was too small for her, the overgrown bush did not allow anyone to ride around the lake as planned. She got a ways out and just pushed the bikes back...this was not a particularly cool place to stay but the views were nice and the lake was cool.
