Taupo, Rotorua, Aukland

Thanks to Laura and Mitch we found a free campground in Taupo which was situated beside a beautiful river next to Huka Falls. Along with the travelling gypsies we called this site home for the last 3 nights as we slept in the Datsui. We thought we should post a picture, which is in the fliker link to show you just how cozy our compact campervan really is. While in Taupo we bathed in some thermal water and went on many hikes to see the different thermal activity. We even had time to post and explain some of our pictures so if you are interested they are in the link at the top right corner of the page.
After Taupo we drove to Rotorua where we did some class 5 white water rafting. We went down the highest commercial waterfall in the world. Despite spilling in the water it was AMAZING! Great experience!
We are presently in Aukland and will be flying to Sydney tomorrow morning, where we will stay at the Park Hyatt hotel. After 8 nights of sleeping in the car we are looking forward to a nice hotel.
Hoping all is well,
Justin and Amanda
