Holiday Part 2

So we went to Rotorua overnight and enjoyed the park... This is a geothermal area so boiling mud pools, and hot steaming water is normal as is the smell of sulphur.
 Wouldn't want to take a swim in here.

 We found out about a place called Bibleworld.  And decided to have a wee visit.  Neat little place with some real artifacts and replicas from Old Testament/New Testament times.  The kids thought it was very interesting.

 They also had a good children's section...Keith and Aaron tried the Roman armour.
 I think it was actually pinching Aaron's skin....poor guy.
Lake Rotorua
 Or what Amelia called it, Swan lake!
 We finished off some ice cream at this lake...yum!
 I believe this is one of the most photographed buildings of NZ.  Government house in Rotorua (I think it is?)

Hope ALL are well in Auckland New Zealand especially you Evelyn and your newest family member. What have you called the baby? I am sure Mr and Mrs Campbell Bracadale (parents of Auckland Elder Alasdair) will have arrived in New Zealand by now DV
